The Poster Session

"Sharing our discovery at the fair."

The Squad standing in front of a science fair poster board, pointing at charts.

About this page

Here is a scene many families will recognize, a poster board, a row of charts, and proud researchers pointing at their findings. The squad is presenting at the fair, turning their whole adventure into a display people can walk up to and explore. This page is practically a rehearsal for real life, since poster sessions are the heart of science fair success for kids everywhere. Children coloring it absorb the friendly rhythm of presenting, point, explain, answer, smile. Sharing what you found, out loud and in person, is where discoveries come alive.

Talk about it while you color

  • Which chart on the poster would you color the brightest, and why?
  • What question would you ask the squad if you walked up to their poster?
  • If you made a poster about something you love, what would be on it?
