Displaying Your Project

HOW DO YOU DISPLAY YOUR PROJECT?
Your science teacher should provide you with guidelines for constructing your display but the following are a few guidelines to keep in mind:

• Use a Science Project display board.
• Include a complete copy of your written Experiment Report. This should be typed and printed to be clearly read. It should clearly state your question and include a separate section for each stage of your project. The steps above are excellent headings for these sections. Include your photographs and drawings. Keep the display uncluttered but complete.
• Prepare a summary of this report that you can recite from memory to the judges in a couple of minutes.
• On the display board, put the title of your project in large, bold letters.
• Use photos, drawings, tables, graphs and brief summaries of each section to illustrate your whole experiment.
• Your display will be on a table. Place materials from your experiment on the table. Check with your teacher to find out what kinds of materials are permitted and which materials can be displayed only in a simulated form.
