A Science Fair Project Display
|
Your science fair project display board should hold their interest and clearly show them what you did and what you learned. The science project display tells the whole story of your science project.
What is a Science Fair Project Display Board? It is usually a three sided unit that will stand on a table top on its own. Check with your teacher or science fair for what is acceptible and the sizes allowed. You can make them or buy them locally at some office supply or art supply stores. The purchased ones are cardboard or some other light weight material and they fold out to form three panels.
Center Panel: Your project title goes at the top in letters big enough to be seen from several yards away. Your data should go under the title. Arrange graphs, charts, pictures, in an orderly way with some spacing between them. Be sure everything is labeled and especially the axes of any graphs or charts. Be sure to include the units of measurement.
Left Panel: State the hypothesis. List the procedure you went through in your experiment to test the hypothesis. Make sure you go through a step by step process of the way you performed the experiment. Use photos here if they help explain the steps.
Right Panel: Your conclusions will go here. Also include anything you might do differently if you repeated the project.
On the table in front of the display board: Place your project report, your abstract, your journal, and a model or models if you have them to represent what you did.
Use these as guidelines in putting together your science fair project display. But absolutely follow any rules your teacher or science fair gives you which may be different. Make the display board look as neat and professional as possible.
