1. OBJ: How do we construct a college style lab report about seed germination? DN: Copy Lab Report notes. ACT: Given notes SWBAT explain how to construct a college style lab report with 70% accuracy. HW: Complete part of Seed Germination Lab (State Problem, Hypothesis; due tomorrow).

2. LAB REPORT Problem: Why was the lab done? State as a question.
Hypothesis: educated guess
Materials: equipment used
Procedure: Steps taken to solve problem.
Results/Conclusion: What did you learn/discover? See data table, graph
Abstract/Summary: Briefly explain . . .
Why was lab done?
Briefly state steps/experiments done.
What did you find/learn/discover? (Hint: see data table, graph; be specific).

3. SEED GERMINATION LAB REPORT
Problem: How do seeds germinate (grow) over time?
Hypothesis: As time goes by, the plant’s height increases.
Materials: petri dish, paper towel, scissors, soil, dixie cup, water.

4. PROCEDURE Place seeds into soaked towel in petri tray.
Place tray on window sill; sunny location.
Each day water seeds, record observations and measurements for 10 days.
DAY
Observation
Plant Height (cm) 1 2 3 4 5

5. RESULTS (graphing):Based on my data the following line graph was constructed
DAY
PLANT HEIGHT (cm) 1 2 3 4
1.5 5 6 7
3.4 8
3.9 9
4.4
PLANT HEIGHT (CM)
DAY

6. Conclusion
According to my graph, as time increases (day 1 → day 10 ), the plant’s height got taller. My graph shows a direct relationship.
