Science Enquiry
Question: Does the amount of paper clips attached to a paper spinner affect how quickly the paper spinner falls to the ground.
Or Does the size of the wings on a paper spinner affect how quickly the spinner falls to the ground.
You may wish to research forces, especially upthrust, gravity and air resistance on the internet first.
You Need to Include:
I already know:
I Predict: (with a reason)
Equipment Needed:
Fair Test: what will you change, what will you measure, what will you observe.
Method: - what will you do? Step by step.
Results - Table and graph
What pattern can you identify in the results/
Conclusion: - why has that pattern occurred, what is the science behind it? – use science language
Improvements – did the enquiry go to plan, do you think anything might have affected your results e.g a windy day, what would you do differently next time.
