St Francis High School

This study will attempt to determine whether the paper size and thinckness systematically influences the hopping distance of Oragami Frogs. For each of these two factors, to levels were chosen. The Thinckness could be thin or thick, and the size could either be small or large. 13 experimentors folded one of each of these types, and made 8 attempts, measuring to the nearest 5 cm.
