Data Collection Chart & Observations

Data Collection Chart:

You need to make a data collection chart, a large rectangle divided into smaller parts, for recording what happens in each trial of your experiment.

T1, T2, T3, etc. stands for Trial 1, Trial 2, Trial 3, etc.
You should do more than 3 trials. Five is recommended.

TAKE PICTURES OF EACH TRIAL!

Measurements are made in metrics




While you are conducting your experiment, making observations. When viewing your project, you must write down what you are seeing, hearing, smelling, and sensing!  Observations are more than just filling in the data collection chart. The chart includes the measurable observations. Observations are the OTHER things, the ADDITIONAL things you see.
WRITE IT ALL DOWN!
