Science Plan Checklist

Three months ago I shared my Science Experiment Plan that I use with my students to develop their Science Fair Projects.  Science Fair was two months ago and I realized I never shared how I graded the projects.  Click here for the Google Doc version of my checklist for grading science projects.


The above image shows what the checklists look like.  I have them printed four to a page.  I chose to give 0-2 points for each item in the list and I communicated with students and parents how many points translated into a specific grade.

I also have a communication grade for this project, because I required an oral presentation.


Update: I have created a freebie for my Teachers Pay Teachers Store and my Teacher's Notebook Store that contains the forms I use and some directions.

  1. Thank you for the checklist! I like that you have an oral presentation with the experiment. That can be the hardest part for many students, but a very important skill to develop.

    1. I try to have students do several short presentations in front of the class each year.
