Science Experiments

Question: Science Experiment ~ urgently needing help!!?

In a week or so, I have to have a report ready regarding a science experiment ~ it needs to be at a tenth grade level or so, and must be an experiment which can last five weeks or more with regarding recording of results. It needs to be creative, interesting and most of all…kinda diverse. Not really simple, something sounding fun and “fresh”. It needs to be able to be done with household items, (or perhaps ones that can be easily bought) and be done in 5 weeks or so…okay thats it. And it needs to be good enough to get full marks! ANY suggestions please…if you read this, please suggest anything you can think of…if you can think of more than one, write them! 10 points/best answer for the best one.! thanks
