8. Prepare your display.
Painted Turtle, Michigan State Reptile (Herpetology)
The maximum dimensions
of the project are 48 inches wide, 30 inches deep, and 60 inches high.
Although a tri-fold display works best, any freestanding display board
is acceptable. The contents and arrangement of the display board (with
information from your workbook) are at your discretion. However, if you
want your project to be eligible for the Monroe County Science Fair, see
the additional requirements.
Be certain to perform a quality check.
Write your name, school, grade, home address, and telephone number on
the back of your display board. Do not show your name or photograph on
the front of your display board, on your workbook, or on your report.
Since electrical outlets
will be available only for experiments and models using a working computer,
design any other electrical display to use batteries.
Live animals may not be exhibited.
Place bacteria and viruses in sealed containers.
Place water or other fluids in watertight containers.
Do not display valuable items.
