This evaluation form is a key to success in the Science Fair! It is the same one that will be used by the judges and teachers in evaluating your project. Remember that the judges expect to find all of these things recorded in your log. If you keep this with you and let it guide you as you work through all the steps of the Fair you will meet the requirements, you will learn a lot, you will have a presentation that is interesting, and your project will be a contender for prizes!
