1.
Make sure that all lines and
edges are straight. Crooked
displays give the judges an
impression of sloppiness. A
good scientist should never
be sloppy!
2.
Lay your letters on the display
board first to see how it looks
before sticking them on. Make
sure that your letters are displayed
in a straight line. You should
use a ruler and draw a straight
line first as a guide before
you stick the letters on. Make
sure that the bottom of each
letter lines up properly against
the rest.
3.
Use a large font for the project
title and a smaller font for
each of the headings. For the
headings, you can also use a
different color from the rest
of your text. However, you should
not use too many colors as this
might distracted the judges.
Most of the ordinary text should
be black in color.
4.
Place all typed material on
a colored backing such as construction
paper. Make sure that there
is a border of at least an inch
all around.
5.
Make sure that your wiring and
electrical connections comply
with all safety standards. Get
help from an adult for this.
6.
Pack a kit of stationery comprising
of colored pencils, markers,
erasers, felt pens, glue, tape,
paint etc - basically anything
that you may need to do last
minute touch ups to your project
display.
7.
Cover the table with a clean
colored cloth before putting
up your display. Choose a color
that matches the color scheme
of the display board. This will
enable your project to stand
out from other projects displayed
next to it.
