For those who have been sick for two or more days this week, you have an extension until Monday for your science fair project.
Presentation Tips...
Check out the tips below to help you prepare what you will say when you get up in front of the class tomorrow to share your science fair project.
A presentation is an abbreviated version of your science fair project.
Introduction. This is where you describe the purpose for doing your science fair project. Why should anyone care about the work you did? You have to tell them why. Did you explain something that should cause people to change the way they go about their daily business? If you made an invention or developed a new procedure how is it better, faster, or cheaper than what is already out there?
Problem Statement. Identify the problem you solved or the hypothesis you investigated.
Procedures. What was your approach for investigating the problem? Don't go into detail about materials unless they were critical to your success. Do describe the most important variables if you have room.
Results. What answer did you find? Be specific and use numbers to describe your results. Do not use vague terms like "most" or "some."
Conclusions. State what your science fair project or invention contributes to the area you worked in. Did you meet your objectives? Was your hypothesis correct or incorrect?
Things to Avoid
Avoid jargon or any technical terms that most people won't understand.
Avoid abbreviations or acronyms that are not commonly understood unless you describe what they mean.
Avoid reading straight off your science fair board
This week you are completing your science fair, writing conclusions about your results and completing the final presentation of your board. Remember to keep your blog up to date if you are doing one.
Presentations will begin this Friday.
In your presentation, you need to talk about each stage of your investigation. It may pay to have some notes written down about what you are saying so you do not just read straight off your board. Practise infront of your family so you are prepared!
