Science on the Wall

About the program

Science on the Wall celebrates early inquiry through poster-style exhibits. Students in grades 1 to 5 explore a question, show what they learned on a poster, and see their work on the wall at the fair. There is no student registration: your teacher handles everything.

For teachers: how it works

1. Work out your poster quota. Each grade at your school may send one poster for every 8 students in that grade, rounded up (see the table below).
2. Choose your posters. You decide how to pick your school's entries.
3. Make each poster 40 cm × 65 cm.
4. Label the back of every poster in the bottom-left corner with the school, grade and teacher's name.
5. Send your participant list to the chair at chair@ucsfair.org , listing the students whose posters you are sending.
6. Deliver the posters to St. Lawrence Secondary by the deadline above.

Poster quota per grade

Students in the grade	Posters allowed
1 to 8	1
9 to 16	2
17 to 24	3
25 to 32	4
33 to 40	5

And so on: one more poster for each additional 8 students.
