All entries MUST follow the scientific method of investigation.  The scientific method involves the following steps: 

1.   Observation-You observe something in the material world, using your senses or machines, which are basically extensions of those senses.

2.   Question-You ask a question about what you observe.

3.   Hypothesis-You predict what you think the answer to your question might be.

4.   Method-You figure out a way to test whether hypothesis is correct.  The outcome must be measurable (quantifiable).

5.   Result-You do the experiment using the method you came up with and record the results. 

6.   Conclusion-You state whether your prediction was confirmed or not and try to explain your results.  Tell the story of your project-tell what you did and exactly how you did it.

All entries must be suitable for hanging with all parts of the exhibit attached to the display board (Please use poster board) so that it can be picked up as one unit to hang. Nothing will be allowed to sit in front of the display boards. Any food item mounted to display must be in plastic bags. Name, school and category must be on the back only. A collection does not qualify for a Science Fair Project.
