report] [evaluation sheet]
OBJECTIVE: Restate the objective given on the project page in your own words.
HYPOTHESIS: This is your best GUESS as to what will occur within the four days of the project. Look at the questions in the conclusions to help you develop your hypothesis. You can’t be wrong here.
Data charts and pictures:
Graphs of data with lines/curves of best fit:
Conclusion: Answer questions such as:
-
Where in your data was the creature growing the slowest and how did you determine this? (rate of growth is slowest)
-
Where in your data was the creature growing the fastest and how did you determine this? (rate of growth is fastest)
-
Where in your data was the creature shrinking the slowest and how did you determine this? (rate of decay is slowest)
-
Where in your data was the creature shrinking the fastest and how did you determine this? (rate of decay is fastest)
Reflections: (extra credit) If you were to do this experiment over or design it differently, what would you change? What other things could you try that might make it more interesting? Was it fun? Do you think that the shapes of the creatures made any difference on how they grew/shrunk?
