Example of A work for data or
observations…(Clear Data)
• 1. In our first experiment with tilted the box until
the object moved. It seemed like it rolled. To test
this we grabbed an empty box and put a rolling
object inside. The sound of our experimental box
versus the one we put the rolling object in was
similar. (Object seems to roll)
Example of A work for Conclusion
• 1. In conclusion, we discovered our object was a
turtle shell. We came to this conclusion using four
pieces of evidence…
• 1. The mystery object made a sound similar to a
turtle shell when it was shaken inside the box..
• 2. …..
• 3….
• 4….
So using these four pieces of evidence we were able
to identify the mystery object 1a as the turtle shell.
