Hypothesis
pts
Poor
Hypothesis is unrelated to the purpose of the project. It is not tested throughout the project.
Fair
Hypothesis is stated but not correctly, and is not testable. No proof of research being tied to hypothesis.
Good
Hypothesis correlates to the purpose but is not stated as an if/then statement. Hypothesis might have been derived from research.
Excellent
Hypothesis is testable and directly correlates to the purpose. It is stated as an if/then/statement. Provides references showing that hypothesis results from research done.
Materials
pts
Poor
Materials are not appropiate for the experiment or list of materials missing.
Fair
Materials are missing a few things the teacher feels could add to the accuracy of the experiment. List did not show details about items used.
Good
Materials are appropiate for the experiment but reproducibility is uncertain. List was not specific for all items regarding sizes and units of measurement.
Excellent
Materials are appropiate for the experiment, showed information about size and units of measurement.
Procedure
pts
Poor
Student did not use appropiate materials and incorrectly stated the procedure so that anyone wishing to do the experiment gets varied results.
Fair
Student used appropiate materials and stated the procedure so that anyone wishing to do the experiment can perform it but must guess what to do at more than 2 steps.
Good
Student used appropiate materials and stated the procedure so that anyone wishing to do the experiment can perform it but must guess what to do at 1-2 steps.
Excellent
Student used appropiate materials and correctly stated the procedure so that anyone wishing to do the experiment can perform it and get the same results.
Data-Tables & Graphs
pts
Poor
No axes are labeled. It is unclear what the data represents without referring to the written results.
Fair
Axes not labeled, Data difficult to understand.
Good
Most axes are labeled, heading for graph, and Data is fairly easy to understand
Excellent
All axes are labeled, heading for graph and Data is easy to understood
Variables
pts
Poor
2 or more variables are not accurate enough to provide a scientific sound experiment.
Fair
Variables somewhat easy to identify, but one of variables not scientific accurate.
Good
One of the variables is difficult to understand, but the other two are easy to identify.
Excellent
Independent, Dependent & Constant variables are easy to identify. May even be listed in notes or on board.
Conclusion
pts

1 pts
Poor
No proof of research shown
Fair
Research not written in own words, may not be cited, and not really connected to hypothesis
Good
One of the following isn't shown: written in own words, hypothesis and research connected, work cited
Excellent
Written in own words, hypothesis and research are connected, work cited
Valid Science
1 pts
Poor
What was tested did not go with hypothesis, therefore not valid
Fair
Scientific method may have been followed, not valid science
Good
Scientific Method followed, testing not 100% valid
Excellent
Scientific Method was used and test was ran numerous times.
Overall Appearance
pts
Poor
Board is not neat and seems haphazardly thrown together. Steps from the scientific process may or may not be out of order.
Font not clear or easy to read on two or three items. Project too easy or been seen a lot
Fair
Board is decorated nicely. More than two steps of the scientific process are out of order.
Font not clear or easy to read on two or three items. Not very difficult or original
Good
Board is decorated nicely and neatly. One to two steps of the scientific process are out of order.
Could be a higher level of difficulty or more original
