Writing practice

Teaching students to write portions of the lab report, before expecting the whole. Writing for a specific purpose and audience ELPS 3-C. The language needs shaping, but this student understands random sampling as a tool for reducing error! To the students credit, the active voice was used. Please share resources for science writing conventions we need to reinforce.
Two different students, in the same research group, writing different conclusions. 

Students were instructed to redesign an investigation, being certain that they used terms from the word wall. This student will rewrite this prompt on a poster to display on parent/teacher night.
