How does the amount of traffic over a week at Barton Academy affect the total amount of birds visiting the bird feeder near the road? We could measure this by setting up a camera, and also by first seeing if birds even come to the bird feeder on the side with less traffic to compare it.

I wonder what organisms live in the fountain water across the street from Barton Academy. Would this water have less microorganisms than the samples we took from Langam Park pond water that we looked at under the microscopes, or will there be none at all? It would help us understand what is in our water in our city, compared to the water in ponds. Since we took data, and know some of the zooplankton we found in the pond sample, it would only take an hour or so to complete.

What part of Barton has the best sunlight to grow Zinnia in 9 weeks? We'd keep track of its growth with a ruler and give all of them the same amount of water and fertilizer if needed. This will determine what place around Barton has the best sunlight for plants if we ever decide to plant flowers around Barton.

I wonder how, in one month, the traffic (I will find this out using localconditions.com) might affect the air quality when the traffic is heaviest (probably around 1:30 or 2:00) using the Purple Air Sensor to measure Particulate Matter such as smoke, soot, dirt or dust.

How would the area and type of bird feeder affect how many birds come? We will make two identical bird feeders, an enclosed one and an open one. We will go to the P.E. field and put one of each type of bird feeder in a shady spot 1 ft apart with a camera to observe. With the other two types of bird feeders, we put them in a sunny spot 1 ft apart with a camera. After 4 days, we will watch the footage and record how many birds came, and compare all the data.
