Display Board

Creating a Display Board

Each student will present their work on a three-panel, free-standing display board as part of the science fair.  Please follow the guidelines below:

• Your display must stand up by itself and fit within the allocated space of 36 inches wide, 15 inches deep.

• Your display board should clearly depict what you did and how you did it, and should include visuals.  These may be drawings, photos, or diagrams.

• All data tables and graphs should be neat, orderly, and clearly labeled.

• You also want your board to be interesting, colorful, and eye-catching so people will want to read about all of the hard work you have put into your project!
