Question, Hypothesis and Background research

During last Term we have been learning about Science, the teachers have been running workshops on different areas so that we could elaborate more on different topics.The students then had to decide what workshop to go to but there were guidelines such as, we had to go to a certain area one or two times within the Term.

From what we have learnt in the Term we now had to create our own science projects from the Question onward's. I had chosen to do my project with a partner, my partner and I struggled to fins a project that would suit both of us. So we came to our teacher with our problem, then our teacher came up with the idea to our project on laughing because we laugh a lot. So we all searched up laughing topics and it came up with this monkey so of coarse we started Laughing. SO our teachers helped us to create our Question. "The laughter of which age group is more contagious??"

To elaborate on this question we had to research and find out more about contagious laughing, my partner and I weren't that sure about the topic so we researched and found that human brains react better to positive sounds such as laughter and triumph rather than negative sounds like screaming and retching. After we had found this out we realized that younger people have higher voices, so our from that we created our Hypothesis. "The younger the age of the person laughing the more contagious it will be because the younger you are the higher pitched sounds you make." I have enjoyed researching about this topic and I can't wait to go further on this topic.

Have you ever done a Science project, if so what was it about??
