= ﻿ ﻿Project Report Becky and Tori   = 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. || We think it does becuase without it, we probably wouldn't know how to use scientific steps! For example, We need to know how to do the scientific method as we complete an experiment. || (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) For the first plane we made, we made it thinner and narrow, with a pointed tip. (2)For another plane, we made the wingspan wider so it would travel farther. (3)The other plane we made has triangle-shaped wings. (4) (5)

My hypothesis is: The bigger the wingspan, the farther it would go. || Write out your experimental procedure, adding any steps you feel are necessary. ||  || Choose three 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. ||  ||
