Today in science class, we made graphs about measuring muscle fatigue. We measured this by squeezing a paper clip (the wooden kind) over and over the same way and we made a graph to see how well we did. We worked in partners so that one partner could squeeze the close pin, and the other count how many times it was opened and closed. There's kind of a pattern to almost every graph, because somewhere at the beginning it goes down, and then kind of a funny "m". And then the numbers go up again. My partner's graph is LOT different than mine, because hers kind of stays up in the air, and mine goes down pretty darn low, all the way to 64. These patterns could be affected by how strong the person's fingers are. That makes sense, because I noticed that a lot of the stronger kids who did more stuff with their fingers got more than me. Maybe it's because I have really double jointed fingers and they're long. I think I might've made my results more reliable by me measuring the whole time. My partner measured sometimes, and we always got different numbers for how many I had done. We also could have practiced the new way of counting that Mr. Solarz taught us because it's faster. We were kind of unsteady on it, and occasionally messed up. To get an idea of what I mean, I'll show you how you count to 20:
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,20
And we had just learned it! Despite being faster, we weren't very good at counting th
