Science Fair
Part 4 due on or before Friday, November 21
Analysis and Conclusion:
 A: Analysis- this includes your data displayed in tables and graphs in final draft form and a written explanation of what your data shows.  What story does your graph tell? B: Conclusion- include a graph that shows data from both your hypothesis as well as the actual results from your analysis. Explain whether or not the hypothesis is supported by your analysis. Compare and contrast your hypothesis and analysis. Consult your journal for any discoveries and difficulties you encountered along the way and report it here.  What scientific question or questions were raised during or after your investigation that you would you like to explore? 
Part 5 due on or before Tuesday, December 2

Display board completed and turned in for judging.  Display Board Directions

Part 3 due on or before Friday, November 7
Conduct Experiment and Record Data and Observations
Record written observations and labeled sketches in your science fair journal as you conduct your experiment. Record your data in a table that is titled and clearly labeled.  Graph the data clearly and accurately. In order to provide more reliable data, your experiment should be repeated several times.  It is a good idea to do a rough draft in your science journal before making a final draft.  You can use the graphing tool on our web site, or a software program such as excel (advanced) to construct your graph.


Part 2 due on or before Friday, October 24
Materials List and Procedure-

Go to the inquiry portal for guidance on this part or any part of the science fair project. Include a step by step list of the procedure you followed in your experiment. Write this section so that someone who doesn’t know anything about your project can follow what you did. Explain as though your audience is intelligent, but uninformed. Using diagrams along with your explanation of the procedure is a good idea.
Part 1 due Friday, October 17
Journal- Set up your journal in preparation to record observations throughout all parts of the project.  Journals should include; written descriptions, labeled sketches, data tables and graphs, questions, ideas, and problems. Use your journal daily!
Background InformationWhy did you choose your question? Where did you get the idea? What real world application does it have? What science did you learn about your project/topic through research? Conduct research from a variety of sources (i.e. experts, research articles, web pages, books). Sources must be cited.
Question-
 Your inquiry question must have a independent variable (x-axis) and an dependent variable (y-axis).
note:
 the independent variable is the variable you change in the experiment while the dependent variable is the corresponding measurement.
Hypothesis-
 This is your "educated", predicted outcome of the inquiry.  You will need to explain your thinking and reasoning in detail.  A graph of your hypothesis would be a good visual to go along with your written explanation.  Don’t forget the independent variable (x-axis) and an dependent variable (y-axis).
