4.       3.11 g 1864-1909 Indian head pennies


Reflection of presentation: 
-I think that some members did not participate as much as others. We didn’t have a project leader for this one, so it was kind of a free for all. Another point that was interesting was four of the six groups got to be in the lab the first day of the project. This gave those groups an advantage to weigh out the pennies and create a mini scientific method for an experiment. The groups who did not fit in the lab had to rely more heavily on the internet.
