Hypothesis

If we change the type of blanket then i think the dog kennel will heat up because blankets keep people warm so i think it will warm up a small space like a dog kennel if we also change the types of blankets the heat will be different  like a thin blanket might be cooler than a thick blanket. If we could also add  an comforter to see if it is cooler because they are very light  and cool

Research

How much heat do dogs add when they are in a covered kennel? 

Dogs add 5°C when its in a  covered kennel

 

What temperature is a uncovered kennel indoods? 

-Houses are normally between 20 and 22 degrees celsius

 

Variables

 

ONE thing that you will test/change: The one thing that we will change is the type of blanket.

 

The thing I think will change or be affected: i think the heat will be affected

How will you measure it? : i will be using a digital thermometer

Procedure

1.Cover the dog kennels 

 

2.put in the thermometer

 

3.wait  30-1 hour 

 

4.check the temperature 

 

5.write down the data you got


 

Observations

So far,the first try of the blankets  were  20 °C f while the first blanket but last was  19 °C. Second  blanket  the first one was  20°C th 2nd one was  20.1°C  the last one is  21°C

Analysis

Number one was a great test the tempture didnt really change from the room tempture and that is the same for number two.
