CONCLUSION
In the conclusion, you will write a few paragraphs to compare your results to your hypothesis. You will use your observational skills to explain what the data means. In this section you will use key points from the background research you did at the beginning of the project. You will think like a scientist about what happened during your investigation. Include whether the data SUPPORTED your hypothesis or if your hypothesis was NOT SUPPORTED by the data. The hypothesis is never "right" or "wrong".
In this section you can also explain the relationship between your independent variable and dependent variable.
Make sure you answer these questions in your conclusion.
