Estimating ground coverage of lawn by science block PlantGroup 1Group 2Group 3Group 4Average % Clovers % Grasses % Leaves % Barley grass % Thistles % Thorns % Weeds % Soil % Is this evidence valid? Is it accurate? Is the average meaningful?

Is this the best way of showing this information? Is this valid for the whole school grounds? Is the independent variable continuous or discontinuous?

Conclusion “The plants with the biggest leaf areas covered the most ground” Write a better analysis! Try writing an evaluation with www and ebi.
