What to Include in Your Science Project Report

The single most important characteristic of your science project report is clarity. Without clarity, the work you put into your project will be lost to the reader,i.e., your teacher and  judges at the science fair.

Your science fair project report should include all of the items that are on your display poster. Descriptions and discussions should be expanded. The following are the items that you need to consider for your report.

• Title
• Introduction
• Background Information
• Materials
• Variables
• Controls
• Experimental Groups
• Control Groups
• Hypothesis or Question
• Experimental procedure
• Results
• Illustrations and graphs
• Conclusion
• Applications
• Summary
• Bibliography
