Homework 11/11/14

Tonight there is no Math homework. The last part of the STEM Fair Journal is due on 11/14/14. Please take this opportunity to work with your child on completing the CONCLUSION.

The conclusion tells what you learned about your topic after completing the experiment. It contains three parts. Use the question prompts below to organize your ideas. Then, join them together to create a paragraph, that will become your conclusion.

If you turn to page 27 of your child's STEM Fair Journal, you will see three questions that need to be answered about your project. Please answer them in complete sentences. Then join them together to create a paragraph (conclusion.)

Below are the question prompts that you will be answering this week.

Was my hypothesis/prediction correct or incorrect?
What is the answer to my question? Support the answer with data collected.
Were there any problems with the investigation or things that I would do differently?

Model Conclusion

My hypothesis was incorrect. I predicted that the red dye would mix into cold water the fastest. However; red dye mixed into hot water the fastest ( within an average time of 36.33 seconds) followed by luke warm water (with an average time of 48.33 seconds.) Red dye actually mixed into cold water the slowest (with an average time of 99.66 seconds.) I didn't experience any difficulty while conducting this experiment. If, I were to do this experiment again, I would change the color of dye that I used, to see whether or not the temperature of the water really impacted how fast the dye mixed.
