Lab Report Expectations

Lab Investigation TitleProblem: The problem in this class will always be written in the form of a question.Hypothesis: The experiment you conduct will test this hypothesis. On this project, the hypothesis should be written as an If…then…, statement using your past experiences and knowledge. (If……. Happens, then…..will be the result.)Materials: Be specific about the sizes, numbers, and types of materials you are using. If you use it, it must be included. If you use it, you must list it. List your materials in columns. No numbering.Procedure: The procedure should be clearly written in the exact order you will follow to test your hypothesis. List each step separately and number each step. Do not use the words “you” or “I in your steps.Data: Data should be recorded in an easy-to-read format such as tables, charts, graphs. Date should NOT be written in paragraph form. A title and labels are required.Conclusion: Your conclusion may be quite different from the hypothesis you wrote. This is OK!

Lab and Report Sample (done in class)Ramp Roll

Problem Which ramp lets the ball reach the end first?

Hypothesis If a ball rolls faster from a higher ramp, then it will also make it to the end of a ramp before a ball rolled from a lower ramp.

Materials 1 ramp high1 ramp lower2 balls, exactly the same size

Procedure 1. Set up both ramps.2. Set both ramps at the same starting point3. Set a ball at the top of each ramp4. Let get of both balls, simultaneously5. Observe which ball reached the end of their ramp first6. Repeat trial three times7. Record data

Con’t Lab and Report Sample (done in class) Data Data of Who Makes it to the End

Trials High Ramp Low Ramp

#1 Yes No

#2 Yes No

#3 Yes No

Conclusion The hypothesis confirmed. It stated that the ball would reach the end of the higher ramp first. A test was conducted by letting two identical balls roll to the end of 2 identical balls roll to the end of 2 identical ramps at different heights. As a result, the higher ramp did have the ball reach the end of its ramp first.

Conclusion My hypothesis was confirmed. If a sharp knife cuts better, then a sharp plane will cut through the air better, and fly further. I made two planes, one with a wide nose, and one with a sharp nose. Then I threw them from the same start line to see how far they went. The results of my trials showed that plane B, the narrow plane flew further.

Test Prep• The importance of writing the procedure steps in an investigation is

so others can redo the investigation exactly like the original.• Every investigation needs a variable.• A variable must not change during any of the investigations.• Only one variable may be in an investigation, at a time.
