TIPS ON PREPARING FOR THE BOWL

 

Students can best prepare for THE SCIENCE BOWL competition by:

           • Keeping up with science in the news (following the newspapers,

             news magazines and televised news)

           • Reviewing scientific terminology, especially prefixes, suffixes

             and root woods

           • Practicing together to develop a playing style that will work to their advantage.  Successful teams

             often stage mock SCIENCE BOWLS in their own schools

          • Watching THE SCIENCE BOWL on Channel 96 (Check the Viewing Guide on the school system’s  

             website, www.pgcps.org, for air dates and times; competing schools can find their air dates and times on

             the schedule poster)

Please plan on arriving at the Bonnie Johns Educational Media Center at 12:30 on your day of taping.  We tape three shows during each day of competition.  You should expect to be at the Center until 3:30.  Parents, relatives and friends are welcome to attend and can view the taping in Room 206, the Interactive Classroom.
