Title vs. Question

AFTER you've done your research and concluded your experiments, it is time to prepare for the science fair. Ask specific questions about preparing for a science fair, including how to set up your display board, how to prepare a presentation, etc. (Please post questions about selecting a project or conducting your experiment by posting in the appropriate "area of science" forum.)

Title vs. Question

Post by osteward »

My 5th grader has done his first science fair project. He wanted to know which ball bounced the highest. We have already put the title on the trifold as "Which Ball Bounces Highest" and now I'm wondering what to put for the Question. Can these two things be the same?

Hello and thanks for your question!
I do think it is possible for the title and the question to be the same, because I have seen that done before at science fairs. However, I would advise to not make them the same thing if you could. The title should be something that grabs attention and is catchy. The question should be more in depth and specificly ask what the experiment results will answer.

Let me know if that helps!
