When the research is done, and the experiment has been completed, remember that the project must still be presented to a wider audience. Take time in completing the display board first. Remember that you know the project the best, and need only share with your audience what you did. On the Science Fair day, dress for success. Along with your display board and materials, be sure to take a table and chair if you need them for displaying your project.
Some students also bring a table covering to add color and interest to their display.
Remember that a science fair is not a beauty pageant, that simple display boards can be very effective, and that the project will be evaluated more on what you have done and what you have learned. However the creativity of a project will be rated more favorably by judges if time, care, and the effective use of design are obvious. Use lettering for the headings that can be read five feet away. Use one or two colors to attract attention to certain features of your project that are special. Talk to the art teacher for advice on layout .
