Abstract
What is an Abstract? The Abstract is a summary of your science fair project. Your abstract is
made up of a brief statement of the essential, or most important, thoughts about your project.
Abstracts should summarize, clearly and simply, the main points of the experiment. Spelling,
grammar, punctuation, neatness, and originality are important. It should be 250 to 300 words
in length. It is one of the last parts of your science fair project that you will complete.
Include the following to create your abstract:
1. Your project purpose statement.
2. The hypothesis or best solution
3. A description of your variables and the control / constants or design criteria
3
or
Define the problem: A statement that of the problem or
need.
(Who) needs (What) because (Why)?
4
Research
Five or more paragraphs explaining your TOPIC. What is the science
behind your science/engineering fair topic? Include all important terms,
concepts, theories, facts, review of literature and relevant math formulas
(possible solutions, what is already out there).
1st paragraph: Introduction- What is your topic.
2nd-4th paragraphs: terms, concepts, theories, facts, review of literature and
relevant math formulas.
Control:
OR
Materials
List of materials and quantity.
AND
Procedures
List of procedural steps of how the independent variable
was changed and how the dependent variable is
measured. OR How the prototype was designed and
developed.
Numbered steps that describe the exact actions you did
to complete your project.
3 or more trials
metric units
Repeatable
Science Data
At least one data table:
Trials
Distance (cm)
Time (sec)
Calculate averages
title
The title of the line graph tells us what the graph is about.
labels
The horizontal label across the bottom and the vertical label along the side tells us
what kinds of facts are listed.
scales
The horizontal scale across the bottom and the vertical scale along the side tell us how
much or how many.
points
lines
The lines connecting the points give estimates of the values between the points.
Engineering Data
Data table to show what works. Does the product do
what it was built to do?
Storyboarding
A series of graphic illustrations or images.

Conclusion
Claim: Statement that answers your question or solves
your problem
Evidence: Use your data to provide evidence for your
claim. What is the relationship between the
independent and dependent variables?
10
Analysis
Compare your results to your hypothesis or best
solution.
Explain sources of experimental or design error.
What would you change next time?

project. Be sure to include all web sites, books,
magazines, and people. Some useful websites:
