| My name is Miranda Álvarez, I'm 15 years old and I'm in grade 9. I am in a boarding school called Albert college that is in Belleville, Ontario. I am originally from Mexico but I have been studying in Canada for two years already. I speak two languages (english and spanish) and I am learning a third (french). My favorite topic at school is Biology and I have been involved in multiple sports such as field hockey, volleyball and football soccer. My project is about bacteria on your hands after hand-drying. My inspiration for it came from the fact that in my school there have tree different ways which you can use to dry your hands. I wanted to check which was the best. For a further investigation I would want to test other drying methods, not only the ones from my school. My advice for any student that wants to do a project would be to just do it. There is nothing to loose, and who knows, you could get this far. |

This means I tested how much bacteria you would get on your hands depending on how you dried them.

My project would help you choose the healthiest and cleanest way to dry your hands. |
