Part One: Experimental Design. Plan out an experiment by answering the guiding questions below. Part Two: Design a Lab Report. Write the outline of a lab report so that another student could complete the experiment by using the materials listed below:

sand water heat lamps thermometers cups

What hypothesis will the experiment test? What are the variables? What purpose would the sand serve? What purpose would the water serve? What purpose would the heat lamps serve? What purpose would the thermometers use? How can you use these materials to test whether land or water heats faster? How would you compare whether land or water heats faster? Within a 24-hour period, at what three points should the temperature be taken ? Why? What would an effective conclusion need to include?
