point to charts, graphs and any important data on the display, or in your notebook.

CONCLUSION
• State the one most important thing you learned by doing the experiment.
• Bring up any new questions you now have as a result of doing your project.

FINAL WORDS & FUTURE PLANS
• When you’re finished, ask the judge if there are any questions they would like to ask.
• Think about what the judge is asking, and answer slowly.
• If you don’t understand their original question, it’s okay to ask them to rephrase it or to be more specific.
• If you don’t know the answer, admit that you don’t, and then either take an educated guess or, you might also say: “I never thought of that before but I will look into it. That’s very interesting.”
• Ask them for any suggestions they may have for improving your project.
ASK FOR QUESTIONS
• Say “Thank You:” Don’t forget to thank the judge for taking the time to talk with you.

OTHER TIPS FOR SUCCESS
OTHER TIPS FOR SUCCESS (1)
• Practice, practice, practice.• Do not read directly from your backboard/tri-
fold.• Dress neatly• Smile and shake hands with the judge when
you’re introduced to him/her.• Talk to your judge directly – look at him/her
while you’re doing your presentation.• Do not chew gum or eat candy while talking
with a judge.• Stand off a bit to the side of your display so
that you’re not blocking it.
OTHER TIPS FOR SUCCESS (2)
• Avoid saying “uhm” and “like” and don’t use any slang words or swears.
• Speak slowly and clearly, so the judge can understand you.
• If you’re part of a team project, make sure each member of the team pretty much takes an equal amount of time as you, in the presentation.
• Use gestures to emphasize important points.• Make reference to pictures, diagrams, charts,
etc. that are on, or in front of your display. It will get the judge more involved with your project and topic.
