**Teacher Comment:** Great use of photos on your board to show what you did. A nice bright title to catch my attention also, well done. Good aim and hypothesis. But I am still a little confused as to how you carried out your experiment as your method isn't that clear. Good to see you use a graph to display your results although your graph doesn't make sense as it is missing labels on the axis so I am unsure what you have actually graphed. Nice to see you have carried out some research into the science behind why things float, this adds detail into your conclusion. I like how you have applied your findings to real life situations also. Good effort Elly.

**Student Comment:**

I agree reading my method out it wasn't very clear to understand. I needed to include a log book. Another thing I cold work on is My Graph didn't have it's axis labeled. I liked how my board was really bright and stood out in this photo. I think my name for my board could have been better than a question. otherwise I think I did really well in my science fair.

Science week

We went to the science lab today my favorite activity was the talking though the cups and string i did it with Tj it was hard to here what they were saying until you block one ere with your finger and the cup over the other. When you felt the string it vibrated. I cant quite remember how this happened because this was the first activity we did.

Reflection on science. ﻿  ﻿ ﻿Yesterday we made a series of tests to find out what each substance is. the powders were baking powder, corn flower, Salt, cream of tater and icing shuher. We thought

**A.**corn flower **B.**Salt **C.**cream of tater **D.** icing shuger <span style="color: #0100ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; line-height: normal;">**E.**baking powder

<span style="color: #0100ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; line-height: normal;">The results where.

<span style="color: #0100ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; line-height: normal;">In our tests we got Baking powder and cream of tater mixed up other wise we did really well as a team.

__**WALT - Identify and group fingerprints into 3 main categories : arch, loop and whorl**__

<span style="color: #0095ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">AIM - To identify your own fingerprints out of an arch, loop and whorl.

<span style="color: #0095ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">HYPOTHESIS I think my finger prints are whorl and loop I think this because they go around in a circle getting bigger and bigger

<span style="color: #0095ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">EQUIPMENT Pencil, paper, sticky tape

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #0086ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">METHOD

1. Rub on the side of a pencil lead back and forth on a sheet of paper to build up the black area large enough for 10 prints 2. Press one of your fingertips down filmy onto the black place the sticky side of a pice of tape over your fingertip ( you may need help with this) 3. Tape the print to the correct location on the fingertip form. 4. Using the magnifying glass compare your prints to the pictures below. Are they Whorls, loops or archers ????

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"><span style="color: #0086ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">**Conclusion:** My finger prints where Left thumb Whorl.Right thumb Whorl. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Left index Arch Right index whorl. Left middle finger arch right whorl. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Left ring finger arch right ring finger arch.
