Starting with a basic recipe for biodegradable plastic, the student slightly varies the quantity of each ingredient to see which modified recipe ends up being the most stretchy.

Quite interesting! It’s good to see you looking out for the environment.
Really interesting questions and ambitious investigation! Very nice job describing your materials and procedures and what you learned along the way.
You created a very impressive experiment by making your own biodegradable plastic and testing how different ingredients affect its flexibility. Your measurements, observations, and comparisons show strong scientific thinking, and your creativity really stands out. To make your project even stronger next time, try testing more than one sample of each recipe and using a more controlled stretching method so your results are even more accurate. Overall, this is a thoughtful, creative, and well‑designed project, excellent work!
