Display Boards

You can purchase the tri-fold cardboard display boards at Michaels. The layout of the display board is in the Science Fair packet and should be laid out as stated so that the judges can quickly look through and understand your experiment. At the Cherry Tree Science Fair, we do not have "extra credit"; however, the following are a good idea and are helpful at the Regional level:

1) A lab notebook showing data collected
2) Acknowledgements
3) Bibliography

***As a side note, the Science Fair is considered a fun, extracurricular activity. Each student may have different reasons for participating: some just for fun, others to "hang out" with a friend (their partner), and others are hoping to win. If they are enjoying science in whatever aspect then I would call it a success! Certainly, those who do strive to win should have that chance and is why this information is made available! ***
