Below are sample boards that you can choose from. You decide what format you like to have but you should have the basic parts:
1. TITLE and QUESTION - The title can be the question in a "catchy" form. If your title is different that our question, then make sure you also include your question.
Ex. Your question might be, "Which bath soap cleans the best?" but your title might be "Splish Splash I Was Taking A Bath."
2. RESEARCH - You might want to include a short paragraph that gives the background information on which you based your hypothesis.
3. HYPOTHESIS - This is your educated guess based on your research.
4. ABSTRACT - Ask your teacher if (s)he requires this component. Sometimes it is put on the board and sometimes it is put in front of the project. It is a short summary of your project. It is usually a separate page and includes the project title or question, your purpose for completing this project, the hypothesis, a brief description of the procedure you followed, and the results of your experiment. Your teacher may just require a copy of your lab report.
5. EXPERIMENT - This is the procedure you followed to do your experiment. It should follow the scientific method and include:
Materials
Procedure
Constants and variables
6. DATA - These are your results displayed in a way that your audience can understand. It is usually displayed in a table, graph, or photographs. It is an "analysis" of what you have done.
7. CONCLUSION - This is a statement of whether your hypothesis was right or not; if it wasn't right, why you think it turned out the way it did, and what you do differently next time.
