- Slide 2
- What is the difference between a title and a sub-title?
- Slide 3
- Title is creative, short and captures the audience attention. Subtitle explains the main idea of the experiment and is more like a sentence.
- Slide 4
- Which is the title and which is the subtitle? Determining how different paper affects how far paper airplanes fly. The way to Fly!
- Slide 5
- SUBTITLE: Determining how different paper affects how far paper airplanes fly. TITLE: The way to Fly!
- Slide 6
- What is the difference between an independent variable and a dependent variable?
- Slide 7
- Independent variable is things that the scientist changes in the experiment to compare. Dependent variable is the thing that is measured (rating, score, distance, accuracy, time, etc...)
- Slide 8
- Which one is the independent variable and a which one is the dependent variable? 4 feet cardboard, wrapping paper, copy paper
- Slide 9
- Dependent variable = 4 feet Independent variable: cardboard, wrapping paper, copy paper
- Slide 10
- What is this? If the type of paper effects how far a paper airplane travels, then the cardstock paper will cause it to fly the furthest because it has the most structure and will keep its shape in flight.
- Slide 11
- Hypothesis
- Slide 12
- What are the three words required in a hypothesis?
- Slide 13
- If, then, becasue
- Slide 14
- What is missing in this problem? How far does an airplane fly using different kinds of paper (copy paper-control, cardstock, wrapping paper, cardboard)
- Slide 15
- The question mark How far does an airplane fly using different kinds of paper (copy paper-control, cardstock, wrapping paper, cardboard)
- Slide 16
- Why is this problem asking the wrong thing? Which paper is the best for getting a paper airplane to fly far?
- Slide 17
- It asked which one (which paper is best) It is suppose to ask a number question -such as How far What is the distance that Which paper is the best for getting a paper airplane to fly far?
- Slide 18
- When should research be conducted about the topic? Before writing a purpose. After writing a purpose. Before writing a problem. After writing a problem. After conducting the experiment
- Slide 19
- After writing a purpose. When should research be conducted about the topic?
- Slide 20
- Which part of the experiment should be numbered in order? Materials Procedure Results Conclusion
- Slide 21
- Which part of the experiment should be numbered in order? Procedure
- Slide 22
- What does not go in the observations section of the report. Date Time Location Temperature Distractions Errors Measurements What it looks like
- Slide 23
- What does not go in the observations section of the report. Measurements
- Slide 24
- Name at least 5 things that should be discussed in the procedure.
- Slide 25
- Collecting materials When to take photos When to make observations When to repeat steps When to record data Clean-up steps Safety Steps When to calculate average The details about how to do the specific steps
- Slide 26
- Write a proper caption for this photo
- Slide 27
- (This is a sample) Photo 1: Testing Location-School Hallway. Paper airplanes were tested by 4 test subjects and were measured in centimeters down the center of a smooth floor hallway. A Photo should be labeled with 3 parts Photo # Title Description
- Slide 28

- Slide 30
- What is wrong with this graph?
- Slide 31
- Too many bars Should just be the average?
- Slide 32
- Given this Graph: Finish the summary of data sentenceThis graph shows that
- Slide 33
- Given this Graph: Finish the summary of data sentenceThis graph shows that the airplanes made out of cardstock flew the farthest (average of 22cm) and the paper airplanes made out of newspaper flew the shortest amount (avg. 6 cm).
- Slide 34
- What is wrong with this acknowledgements? Id like to thank Ms. de Wood. I appreciated all my test subjects: Julie, Jill, Jorge, Jack, Jeremiah, Jose, Jillian, Joseph, Jeremy. I want to recognize my mom and dad too.
- Slide 35
- Explaining WHY you are acknowledging them. Id like to thank Ms. de Wood for all the help teaching me about all the steps required to complete the project. I appreciated all my test subjects: Julie, Jill, Jorge, Jack, Jeremiah, Jose, Jillian, Joseph, Jeremy who helped me collect data during testing the paper airplanes at school. I want to recognize my mom and dad too for purchasing all the materials needed for me to complete the experiment.
