individual project.

your name, grade, and project title in large letters that can easily be
identified.
Note: Children in the K/1 level will not be required to

SCIENCE
Two types of
projects: experiment project board or experiment model/demonstration
Experiment Project Board:
This would be used for an experiment you conducted at an earlier time. Include
experiment details and results using the scientific method as a guideline.
Include at least two pictures. Include a written report attached to the project
board. Participants will be given an opportunity to explain their projects to
the judge.
Experiment Model/Demonstration: Set up your model and be ready to demonstrate your
experiment for the judge. Include a written report with each step of the
scientific method included. Note: not all models will require demonstration,
but your written report should clearly explain your model, and participants
will be given the opportunity to explain their projects to the judge.
