=** ﻿ ﻿Project Report ** = Why do you think the scientific method is 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. || The scientific method is important so you can find methods of recording and working out what to do. If you just throw planes around, it would be a mess.

Can thinner planes fly faster? || (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) That planes with wider air spain fly further. (2) That planes with thinner wing spain go faster. (3) Planes with out a pointy end do not go as well but some do with out a point. (4) (5)

My hypothesis is that thinner planes go faster. || Write out your experimental procedure, adding any steps you feel are necessary. || items:a4 paper
 * **Lesson 3:** Independent, controlled and dependent variables.

steps: step1: || 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. || MOTH: 1:10.27m 2:5.00m 3:1.85m
 * **Lesson 4:** Trials

DART: 1:10.60m 2:11.60m 3:12.35m

 * **Lesson 5:** Graph your results and post your video to the wiki. || DOWN BELOW! ||
 * **Lesson 6:** Compare your results with those of other students. ||  ||
