JUMP
By: Cole Wilhelm date:12/6/13

2. My Question How far can the 6th graders jump against how
far the 9th graders
can jump?

3. What is interesting about this?
I have always wanted to see if
a 6th grader can jump farther
than a 9th grader. It could
depend on their size or their
weight. A 9th grader could
just be smarter, but a 6th
grader could just beat them.

4. My Hypothesis
If the 9th graders are jumping against 6th graders, then the 9th graders will jump the farthest.

5. Variables Independent: The age of the kids jumping Dependent:
How far they jump
Control:
The starting point and the same tape measure

6. procedure * Get a tape measure. * Have a starting point.
* Have the 6th and 9th graders jump.
* Record how far they jumped with a
tape measure.
* See who jumped the farthest.
* The 9th graders will jump before the
6th graders.

7. data

8. conclusion The 9th graders jumped the farthest because
they are bigger and have more strength. The
6th graders came close, but they lost. My
hypothesis was right because the highest they
got was 55.5 inches. I learned that 9th graders
are more likely to jump farther than a younger
person. I had no problems, but the thing I would
change is to get more people.
