Science Fair

My school has a sixth grade science fair, so of course I had to do it.  My experiment was based on popcorn.
What I did was I popped three brands of popcorn Orville Smart Pop, Pop Weaver, and Pop Secret.  Then I counted the popped and the unpopped kernels.  Next I  recorded the results in a pie and bar graph.  The winner was Pop Weaver( the least expensive), second was Pop Secret, last was Orville Smart Pop.  now you may think that was a piece of cake , and it was, but the hard part was the actual day of the science fair.
I had to repeat that whole process over and over again to about 500-800 kids!  A lot right.  It took about the whole day to get through it all.  After that my voice ached, my back hurt, and my bottom was sore.  I can defiantly can wait until the next fair.   Oh and I forgot I had tried to do another experiment, but it never worked.  Another thing there was only three more days left until the science fair.  So I had to come up with a whole other science fair project.  Idea..........................................POPCORN!
