The most frustrating thing about my science fair project was no doubt at the end setting up the poster because I like to have all my stuff layed out and done before it is due, I just felt rushed. When other people seen my project they were really interested to learn about my experiment, they wanted to know more about my results in the future when I collect more data they even said they would check back in with me. My project was different then my classmates because a lot of them had like "cook book" projects but mine was more like a classic science fair project. Additionally for MOST in my revision I will collect more data and add more pictures and add more creativity so I stand out.

ReplyDeletei wish i would've had more time on creating my poster to make look more better.My goal next time is to have cofidence in my self about what im doing , i did not know that people were going to like . i think my project can make a change in our socity or the nation we live in .
ReplyDeleteWhat risks did you take? If the project was going to be interesting or not.
ReplyDeleteWhat helped your learning? Research and actually doing the experiment.
Have you changed any ideas you used to have on this subject? i thought this would be boring to me but it ended up being way more interesting.
What do you wish you had spent more time on or done differently? The poster i wish we had more time to make it more presentable and interesting.
What i learned from my mistakes is not to rush on my project. i was really happy about finishing knowing that we did a great job. i learned that you don't have to b e afraid about your project as long as you know what we are doing. my goal for the next project is to take my time and pace myself
ReplyDeleteI learned to passe myself. I did my best in presenting and preparing everything with my partner.I enjoyed my project because it gave me a better over view on whats happening everyday in our environment what we are doing to the environment. I would probably try and see what level of bleach it could survive at.
ReplyDeletei learned that you have to be on point with your units and things right.when people was looking at my work i wanted them to see that it was different and no one had it.something i learn about my myself was that i am a great person to work with.i want to see if my project can get bigger and better.
ReplyDeleteWhile working on this project me and my partner had to do it three times because something went wrong and we didnt get the expected results. I feel happy about how our project came out I think almost everything went as planned. The most important thing i learned in this project is that if something in an experiment doesnt go right you should go back into your data and see something that you may have over looked before and that you should never just give up. Ive gotten better at this because i know that you may have to add more borax and its not always gonna go right and to not worry.
ReplyDeletewhat did you learn from your mistakes? what i learn from my mistakes was to never give up and keep trying. how does this work reflect your success? this work reflect help me because it teachers me how to do stuff. Did you enjoy this? yes i enjoyed this this was a very good project to do. what do you wish you had spent more time on? doing more harder research.
ReplyDeleteI learned that the way you do your work people can noticed and they you have to try your best and be confident in you work. also that lead can effect your water and poilution and sea monkeys are not good...
ReplyDeletethe problems i came across were typing up everything and using my time wisely. the part we worked best on was the project its self the thing i learned about myself was i work good with other people
ReplyDeleteOne thing I found frustrating about this project is limited time. One thing that helped me was Wikipedia. I enjoyed this process because my partner and I equally split the work and our communication was very good. We will do more trials and investigate more into the leading questions
