This document provides instructions for creating a science project board and keeping a log book. It explains that the project board should tell the story of the project through visual elements like models, photos and surveys, in an interesting but not crowded way. It then details eight rules for an effective log book, including using a durable notebook, labeling it with contact info, writing in ink, numbering pages, dating entries, being legible, documenting all project phases, and keeping it organized. The log book is a crucial record of all research and experimentation.

4. Project Board
Your science fair display represents all the
work that you have done.
It should consist of anything that represents
your project, such as models made, items
studied, photographs, surveys, and the like.
It must tell the story of the project in such a
way that it attracts and holds the interest of the
viewer.
It has to be thorough, but not too crowded, so
keep it simple.
5. Log Book
logbook is a crucial part of any research project. It is a
detailed account of every phase of your
project, from the initial brainstorming to the
final research report.
The logbook is proof
that certain activities occurred at specific
times.
Journals and logbooks are subject to
scrutiny by the scientific community and are
acceptable evidence in a court of law.
6. Log Book (continued)
RULE #1: Find a durable hard-bound
notebook or black and white
composition book.
7. Log Book (cont.)
Rule #2: Label your logbook
your name, phone number, email address, and
teacher's name in a prominent location.
Rule#3: Write all entries in ink NO PENCIL.
This is a permanent record of all of your
activities associated with your
project.
8. Log Book (cont.)
RULE#4: Number the pages in your

11. Log Book ( cont)
Rule #7: Should be used during all
phases of the project.
Should include your brainstorming, calculations,
library/internet searches, phone calls, interviews,
meetings with mentors or advisors, notes from tours of
laboratories, research facilities and other related
activities.
Remember that it's documentation of your work.
12. Log Book
Rule #8: Make sure it is organized.
