How Do You Display 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.
BE PREPARED!
You will be asked by the Science Fair judges to explain your objectives, methodology and results. Study your material and make sure you can clearly explain everything about your project and what you have learned.
Good luck and have fun!
