Sample Science Fair Project Layouts
There is no one correct way to set up your board. It should make sense, be organized, and (for 3rd and 4th graders) follow the scientific method. The last five projects pictured were completed by 1st and 2nd graders, and do not follow the scientific method.
- Remember that you need a TITLE and a QUESTION. The title should be related to the question.
- We read from left to right and from top to bottom. :)
- Add pictures and graphs where they fit best and make sense.
- Proofread your work.
- Use pen, marker, or print your writing. Pencil tends to look unfinished.
