INQUIRY PROJECTS- Please be sure you are using the powerpoint for Inquiry found on the bottom of the important docs and info. page and on the attachment section of the Inquiry Learning tab.
This template is set up so you can download it, fill in your own info, SAVE IT and upload it again to the google drive to share with me or on your own flash drive.
Remember - to get full credit you must have pictures of YOU doing the experiment, follow the template parameters, and have multiple trials or subjects (at least 5) use metric measurements and have a topic that has been preapproved, that deals with organ systems, genetics or offspring traits. I will be using the same rubric to grade your presentation as you present it. Due February 26th!
