**Hawkesdale P12 College Students**
Why do you think the scientific method an important process?
 * **Task to be completed** || **Date, student comments, answers to questions and results of task.** ||
 * **Lesson 1:** Introduction and discussion about scientific method.

Decide what factor can be measured to determine which is the 'best' paper airplane.

Write a question that states what your group would like to investigate. || I think the scientific method is an important process because... if it is not done properly it wont work

think the best paper plane is the one that flies the furtherest

The question that our group would like to investigate is if its wingspan will make it fly better || (length of flight, height of flight, accuracy of flight). Write three to five notes about what you have learnt from your research.
 * **Lesson 2:** Research of different paper planes to determine which variable you will test (length of plane, width of plane, mass etc) that affects the factor you are measuring

Write your hypothesis in the cell at right. || Notes: (1) will the wingspan affect the length of the flight (2)If the wing span is different, it might fly further than short wingspan (3)Would the weight of the plane fly better than a lighter plane. (4) Smalller wings might give it more speed to fly further. (5) Larger wingspan might give it more clide.

My hypothesis is does the wingspan make a difference in the flight of the plane || Write out your experimental procedure, adding any steps you feel are necessary. || A shorter wingspan might fly better Wind Weight of the plane || Choose four planes and complete five trials for each plane. Collect the data for each trial. Complete the Google form (Result Entry Form) with your results One member of the group should be responsible for filming a student explaining the hypothesis being tested, the actual flight trials or post-flight results. ||  ||
 * **Lesson 3:** Independent, controlled and dependent variables.
 * **Lesson 4:** Trials
 * **Lesson 5:** Graph your results and post your video to the wiki. ||  ||
 * **Lesson 6:** Compare your results with those of other students. ||
