Activity Overview
Creating a science poster or infographic is a fantastic way to showcase science topics in a compelling visual format! Not only are creating science posters lots of fun for students, they also provide teachers with a worthwhile assessment at the end of a unit! Students have to think critically to determine what facts and information to highlight and how to illustrate important connections between data.
Here are some ideas for science project topics for high school:
- Specialized Cells
- Basic Cells: Plant and Animal Cells
- The Carbon Cycle
- States of Matter
- The Digestive System
- Understanding Atomic Structures
- Renewable Energy
When finished, students' science posters can be printed, laminated, and hung around the classroom or school. Students can also project them onto the board and present their findings to their classmates, adding a public speaking component to the project. Teachers may wish to organize a "gallery walk" where students have the opportunity to walk around as if they are at the Science Museum!
Teachers, don't forget, you can add as many templates to your assignments as you wish! For additional templates to add to this assignment, check out our Science Infographic Templates, Science Fair Poster templates, PSA Infographic Templates or our Entire Infographic Gallery!
