  2. Copy the assignments for the week into your agenda from Mrs. Eagle’s webpage. Assignment Schedule http://www.gcs.k12.nc.us/Page/2555

  3. Parts of a Research Investigation Article Please label each section with headings! Title: Descriptive title about what you did and found (we’ll do this last). Introduction: Paragraph introducing different types of human traits (inherited vs. acquired, dominant vs. recessive) and overall purpose of the experiment. The last sentence should be your hypothesis (what you think you will find). For example, I hypothesize that dominant traits are more common than recessive traits. Methods: Paragraph explaining what you did and how you analyzed the data. Data & Results: In this part you show your data (data table, graphs, pictures, etc) and WRITE about your data. For example: “Graph 1 shows that 93% of CORE is right-handed”. Analysis and Conclusions: One or more paragraphs analyzing your data and explaining WHY might have gotten those results. Support your analysis with numbers from your data table or graph. The last paragraph should sum up what you did and what you found (now you can write your title!) Research Investigation on Human Traits – Due 2/12/14

  4. In order to compare traits survey data between your class and your family, it’s helpful to convert our frequency data into percentages (since the total number of the class is much higher than your family). • Create a new data table for comparing your data. • Convert frequency data into percentages and add to new data table. 2 4 X 100 2 4 X 100 # with trait Total Number X 100 15 29 X 100 14 29 X 100 Comparing Traits Survey Data

  5. Graph Your Traits Data

  6. Hawley Hornets Team Dr. Batten Shon B. Justice N. • Ways you and your family can help fund research to fight childhood cancers • Sign up to become a shavee, collect donations, and go BALD on March 1st! • In addition to the satisfaction of helping out someone with cancer, ALL Hawley Hornet shavees will receive a pass (after March 1st) to “sit with a friend/sunny day pass” for an entire week! • Donate money to support Dr. Batten • Donate money to support the Hawley Hornets team. • *** all donations are tax deductible *** St. Baldrick’sCancer Research Fundraiser
