**Teacher Comment:** A beautifully presented Science Fair board Sam, well done, nice use of pictures to show what you did. Great hypothesis and explaining why you thought that. Your method is very accurate and exact while being easy to follow. Great to see you carrying out your experiment 6 times to ensure that your results are not a fluke! A good way to display your results in a table and a graph. You have discussed your results well in your conclusion and started to include some science behind these results, however you could have carried out some more research to find out why you achieved the results you did. Overall a fantastic science fair Sam, well done.

**Student Comment:** I really liked doing my science experment it was a lot of fun. It was really exciting when the weights fell of the metal and then putting all of the infomation on the science board.The real science experment was a hole lot of fun one of the things that I could have done better is put more things on to the board without making it to cramped.



We went into the science lab to conduct some experiments. We had 5 containers of something and we had to find out what they were and to do a few tests on the different substances. first of all we had to make a hypothesis. And ours was in the first container we thought was baking soda 2 we thought salt 3 we thought it was cream of tater 4 we thought it was icing sugar 5 we thought cornflower. We had to put vinegar into the substances because when you put vinegar into it it fizzes and if it dose fizz it is baking soda so we found out number 3 or c was baking soda 2 or b was salt 1 or a was corn flower 4 or d was icing sugar and 5 or e was cream of tater

__WALT - Identify and group fingerprints into 3 main categories : arch, loop and whorl__

AIM - To identify your own fingerprints out of an arch, loop and whorl.

HYPOTHESIS I think my finger prints are loops............ I think this because .......i looked at my hands and the different types on the board

EQUIPMENT Pencil, paper, sticky tape,and magnifying glass

METHOD

1. Rub the side of a pencil lead back and forth on a sheet of paper t build up the black area large enough to take 10 prints 2. Press one side of your finger firmly onto the black. place the sticky side of a pice of tape over your fingertip. (you may need a friend to help you with this.) 3. Tape the print to the correct location on the fingerprint form. 4. Using the magnifying glass compare your prints to the picture above and try to label them as either arches, loops or whorls.



Resultes:



Conclusion: In conclusion the finger prints that I have are loops and they all turned out the same.
