Use the Inventors Hall of Fame site to read about famous inventors. The site is indexed and searchable. Students could easily use these biographies to start a research project, or you can post them on a bulletin board. Help inspire your students! You may also want to search through the camps and programs offered to see if there is one of interest being held near your community. Alternatively, you could suggest to your administrator that your school sponsor one of the programs. There is no cost to the hosting school/district.

In the Classroom
Open the tab on the top menu bar for Inductees and scroll down to the most recent year for inductees. Display this page on the interactive whiteboard or projector, and use it to create an inspiring discussion about inventions with students. Ask students to choose an inventor and/or invention of interest to them and research how the inventor went about discovering his/her invention. Look through the programs and camp offerings for ideas for a science fair project. Ask students to look around at home and school to find something that needs to be invented!You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.
