  1. I was impressed that you thought about possible errors like shade and how far you held the thermometer. That shows maturity in your analysis. You also did a great job calculating averages and comparing results from two different days. That shows strong scientific thinking. The slides are organized, with clear tables and visuals. Great job!

  2. Great job! Excellent field data where you collected multiple measurements per color over two days and averaging results makes your conclusion convincing
