Paper plane recording sheet

        LI: to use statistical and scientific methods to study the effect of wing span and area on lift.

We measured flight distance of our different planes that had different wingspan measurements. We recorded the flight distance. The type of graph we made was a scatter chart. We had to put onto a scatter chart. One person threw the planes and they had to be consistent. We used a  trend-line is the line that shows how high or low the results are. We had some mistakes because some planes are not as close as the other planes. The reason could be that the plane was thrown too hard or too soft or that it was not folded correctly. My interpretation is that as the wingspan gets bigger the flight distance increases. 

Tennis

L.I to learn about the serving tactic. For kiwi sport we were learning about how to serve properly. We had to first use our hand to throw the ball like shot put for it to hit the cones.

Paper Plane Task

We had to make 12 planes of the same plane but we have had to change one variable. A variable is a feature of an object that can change between different versions of the object. For example: some variables in chairs could be height, width, depth, weight, materials, strength, colour. An independent variable is unchanged by other variables. These are usually controlled in experiments to see if they make changes in other variables. We had to decide which independent variable to change to measure the dependent variable. We had to create a spreadsheet to record variables and results. We also had to create planes with measured variations in your chosen independent variable
