Project
1. You are require to design a set of instructionsto carry out an fair test / project based on theexcursion to Malacca Zoo.
2. Write a report for your project and present it
with power point.
3. Your report must contains of:a) Purpose of projectb) Materials / Things Needed
c) Proceduresd) Inferencese) Hypothesisf) Interpreting Data ( Table / Graph)g) Conclusion

How do i do my experiment?1. Project purpose - What do you want to find out?
Write sentence that explains what you are looking
for.eg : To investigate/show the relationship between
and .
2.Procedures-contains the steps needed tocomplete the experiment
3. Inferences - An inference is a suggested
explanation based on evidence (which can lead to
further testable hypotheses).

4. Hypothesis - an idea about the solution to a problem,
based on knowledge and research .Your hypothesis is
what you believe will happen when you run yourexperiment. It must be a statement not a question.
5. Experiment Design( procedures) - You have to write
out step by step how you will test your hypothesis and
how you will measure those changes.
6.Interpreting Data ( Table / Graph ) organize all the data
collected during experimentation. Numbers, called "raw
data," can be recorded in orderly way (table)
7. Material and equipment - Make sure you have
everything you need to run your experiment and keep the
list.

THE CRONOLOGY OF THE SCIENTIFIC PROJECT
Doing Research
IdentifyingProblem
Stating aHypothesis
Conducting projectExperimentation
Reaching aConclusion
collecting information from your ownexperiences,from knowledgeable
sources. Your first research is used toselect a project topic collectinginformation
asummary of the results of theproject experimentation and astatement of how the results relate
to the hypothesis
The problem is the scientific questionto be solved.

1) It is possible to distinguish between smokersand non-smokers by the sound and quality of their
voice alone? S
2) Does gender, age, or smoking habits affect a
persons sense of smell? RS3) Will non-smokers have a greater lung capacity
than smokers? RS

Format :
Project title : Do people from different backgrounds have
different lung capacities?
(write a title that describes what you are investigating. Tryto make it catchy !)
Description : Students in the primary and intermediate
grades will:1. Recognize that breathing is a necessary, automatic life
process;
2. Observe and record data on respiration rate;
3. demonstrate how air enters and leaves the lungs;
4. Observe how respiratory rate changes with different
activities;
5. Use counting as a means of gathering data.
