Should You Play that Funky Music?
By: Sarah Hillock

  Instructions to Class
 

For my science fair project, I am conducting an experiment on the affects of music on student’s math performance scores. I will also be looking at the results compared to your gender. This experiment will run over three days. On two of the days you will listen to music for two minutes, then start the test with the music continuing to play. You will have 8 minutes to complete the test. You probably won’t complete all of the test in the 8 minutes. You are not to use a calculator. You do not need to put your name on the paper but when you are asked to turn over the test, please circle whether you are male or female.

Test A: You may start the test

Test B and C: You will listen to the music for two minutes, then I will tell you when to turn over the test and begin.

Good luck to all.
