Check your inkjet cartridges and printer ink supplies. You will want to use various colors to make your charts, tables and graphs. If you need to replenish your supply, now is the time to order them.
The sections of a report include:

The Title Page - in the center of the page write the Project Title, and your name, grade, school, date underneath that. Some schools want only the Title of your project on the first page. Write the title so it grabs the reader's attention. Do not make it the same as your Big Question.
Table of contents - page 2 of your Easy Science Fair Projects Report. Include a page number in front of the name of each section. Center the word "Content" or "Table of Contents" at the top of the page. Number the sections of the Easy Science Fair Projects Report in a list below the Table of Contents....
Table of Contents
1. Abstract
2. Introduction
3. Experiments
4. Data
5. Discussion
6. Conclusion
7. Acknowledgements
8. References
Abstract - brief overview of the project - one or two paragraphs. No more then one page. We will address this later.
Introduction - hypothesis, explanation of what prompted your research and what you hoped to achieve.
Experiment - describe in detail the method used to collect your data or make your observations. Be sure to explain every detail so that someone could repeat the experiment step by step. Include data, drawings, charts and graphs. Also, you may want to include photos
.
Data - include all data and measurements from your experiment along with drawings, charts and graphs. If you have extensive data that is several pages, put it in an appendix at the back of your notebook.If it is very long, and you put it in another binder, write a summary statement along with the data.
Discussion - results and conclusions obtained from your experiment; compare your results with published data you found in your research, what you would do differently if repeating the experiment; possible ways in which the project could be expanded in the future.
Conclusion - summarize your results. Only include what was stated earlier in the paper.
Acknowledgements - brief statement stating the names of people and how they helped you.
References - Books, magazines, journal, articles, interviews that you used to do your research. Ask each person's permission that you interviewed to print their name, title, work address and work phone number.

CLUE No. 5, Part C
AN ABSTRACT - A Brief Anaylsis of Your Investigation
Easy Science Fair Projects
Line "F" on your timeline

What is an abstract? It is a brief, written discussion of your Easy Science Fair Projects. It includes the project title, purpose of your project / experiment, the hypothesis, description of the procedure, the results, and conclusions of your Easy Science Fair Project investigation. It also may include any possible research applications.

After much investigation we decided to add a whole page devoted on how to write science fair projects abstracts. At the bottom of the page you will also find links to abstracts. Some have pictures of display boards.

Look at this resource, also, for guidelines on how to write an abstract.
Here is an interesting resource that I found. The Abstracts - International Science And Engineering Fair is a magazine that includes the abstracts of the finalists at the International Science and Engineering Fair.
Here is an example of a well written abstract....

Link to Writing
if you struggle with writing.
(click on the link and then scroll 1/2 down the page.)

Write a first draft of your easy science fair projects report. A first draft is the first time you write your report. Include your Big Question, hypothesis, materials list, numbered step-by-step explanation of your procedure, results, analysis of results leading to the conclusion.

When possible use a computer to write your report. Double space your lines. Enter and create data, graphs, tables and pictures. Use the spell check to edit and revise your report.

Ask someone who has excellent writing skills to edit the 1st draft of your Easy Science Fair Projects Report for grammar, clarity and spelling.
After the 1st draft is edited, input suggested changes. Give this 2nd draft to the editor to proofread the paper again.
When you are satisfied with the results, type a revised, polished copy for your final report.
Print your final copy on clean white paper. Put each sheet of paper in a 3-ring, clear plastic protector. Then put all the protected papers of your report in a notebook that has a pocket. When you get to the science fair, place the notebook in front of your display board. This notebook will also be handed in to your teacher.
