RESEARCH is KEY! Do some research for your CER if you want an “A”! This is a TEST grade! 48 points for your CER.

Complete your Data Analysis Packet and turn in. Make sure you are using your team’s data for this packet. I will quickly review and get it back to you. Use this to assist you in writing your CER.

CER (on Steroids) due on Friday! AT THE BEGINNING OF CLASS! Take pictures or record data from other teams that can help support your claim. Your claim is your hypothesis. Clean it up if necessary—NO subjective words. This is one sentence and the qualifier of if it is supported or not supported. Find at least 3 pieces of evidence (either from your own, other team’s or research) to use to either support or not support your claim. DO NOT explain here! Make sure to use scientific terms, concepts learned in class about phytoremediators, and/or research to explain WHY YOUR CLAIM WAS SUPPORTED OR NOT. Worth double! Create your data table with EVERYTHING LABELED, TITLED AND WITH UNITS. Make your graph with EVERYTHING TITLED, LABELED, UNITS, KEY, COLORS.
