In order to have a successful and productive school year, it is necessary for all students to obey certain rules that are the guidelines for running a classroom. The following are a list of rules that must be obeyed during the year:

Include background information that suggest why the topic is of interest and related findings. It should contain the following: (^) A statement of the purpose , scope, and general method of investigation in your study. Express the central question or questions you are asking. (^) Descriptions of your experiment and/or hypothesis. Include a general description of what you have done and specifics about how you did the experiment. (For example: what chemicals were being reacted in the lab?) (^) A list of any chemical reactions and mathematical equations used in this experiment. Procedure (Materials and Methods) (10 points) This section should describe all experimental procedures in enough detail so that someone else could repeat the experiment. Some guidelines to follow: (^) Describe what materials, subjects, and equipment you used (Materials). (^) Explain the steps you took in your experiment and how did you proceed (Methods). Results (Data, Observations and Calculations) (40 points) The results section should present data that you collected from your experiment and summarize the data with text, tables, and/or figures. Effective results sections include: (^) All observations relevant to the lab should be stated. (^) Data tables with titles, measurements, units and significant figures should be written out. (^) All of the calculations which must be worked out with detailed explanations of what you have calculated and what the results are. (^) Results made must be supported by both Qualitative and Quantitative information from your data and observations. Discussion (40 points) The discussion section should explain the significance of the results and give a detailed account of what occurred. Evaluate what happened, based on the purpose of the experiment. The discussion should contain: (^) A summary of the findings of your observations, and explanation of why things occurred.
(^) A description of the patterns, principles and relationships your results show. Explain how your results relate to expectations and to references cited. (^) Sources of error and error analysis should be included if applicable to the lab. (^) There will also be additional discussion questions that need to be answered. These questions MUST be written out.
Always remember to use scientific explanations to solve problems in a reasonable, logical and accurate way. This is true for any problem whether it is science related or not. Your lab report should reflect a well thought out scientific justification using a method of CLAIM-EVIDENCE-REASONING Claim: A statement of a student’s understanding about a phenomenon or about the results of an investigation A one-sentence answer to the question you investigated It answers, what can you conclude? It should not start with yes or no. It should describe the relationship between dependent and independent variables. Evidence: Scientific data used to support the claim Evidence must be: Sufficient —Use enough evidence to support the claim. Appropriate —Use ONLY data that support your claim. Qualitative , Quantitative , or a combination of both. Reasoning: Ties together the claim and the evidence Shows how or why the data count as evidence to support the claim. Provides the justification for why this evidence is important to this claim. Includes one or more scientific principles that are important to the claim and evidence.
