Reflection

During the 14 days of recording, it was really troublesome to record the temperature daily. Even so, it was kind off interesting as it was my first time getting in contact with to such a thermometer which can record both maximum and minimum temperature. It was also kind off hard to read the temperature as it was of different directions and sometimes i get mixed up with it. Through the experiment, i have learnt that the temperature in different location varies. Not only that, the height, location etc... affects the temperature that is recorded. For example, if the doors and windows of the house are opened frequently, breeze enters the house thus affecting the temperature recorded. Another example is the height of the thermometer. As we all know that hot air rises, when we place our thermometers at a higher area, hot air rises so will the temperature. Thus i can conlude from my results that the temperature record may not be very accurate and that the temperature in singapore is rather constant as the range is not higher than 5.
