Science Fair Display Tips
REMEMBER - Take pictures as you are doing your project!!Organize your information like a newspaper so that your audience can quickly follow the thread of your experiment by reading from top to bottom, then left to right. Include each step of your science fair project: Abstract, question, hypothesis, variables, background research, and so on.
Use a font size of at least 16 points for the text on your display board, so that it is easy to read from a few feet away. It's OK to use slightly smaller fonts for captions on picture and tables.
The title should be big and easily read from across the room. Choose one that accurately describes your work, but also grabs peoples' attention.
A picture speaks a thousand words! Use photos or draw diagrams to present non-numerical data, to propose models that explain your results, or just to show your experimental setup. But, don't put text on top of photographs or images. It can be very difficult to read.
Going Green with Tablet PC's!

Student PC Reminders!!
The tablet PC’s have greatly enhanced the learning environment in the science classroom. The students are excited to use them, they are very interactive and hands on. They are learning 21st century skills that will help them after high school as well as help our classroom and environment to “go green!” Mrs. Pottorff
Go Start and My Computer to see your servers.
When getting a pdf file off the website to work on, convert it to a windows journal or one note to write on it with the pen. Open the file, click on the printer icon and you can convert and save it.
When you save to the science drop box you cannot retreive it. When you put it in the science drop box you are submitting it to Mrs. Pott for grading.
When saving something to work on later, save it to your personal server, then you can open it on any computer in the school.
Make sure you name the file before submitting it as instructed by Mrs. Pott.
Make sure you log off AND shut down!
Make sure you return the pen!
