1S1P Topic - Controls of Temperature

You can earn up to 5.5 points for report content and up to 3.5 pts for writing quality.  When grading these reports I usually start with an average score (4.5 + 3 = 7.5 out of 9 in this case) and then raise or lower your score based on what I find in your report.

By this point in the semester you shouldn't really need any topic specific guidelines.  Here's my recommendation for how you should approach any 1S1P report.
Read through the online reference material from start to finish.  As you are doing so take some notes and try to create an outline of the topic.  Then decide what the main points are and what you can include in a 1 page (double spaced) report.  This is a relatively short topic so this shouldn't be too hard to do.

Explain the material in your own words - your report should be your understanding and explanation of the material.  Avoid generalities, try to include specific details and examples from the reading section.  The separate sections or paragraphs of your paper should blend together into one seamless coherent report.  Your report should be nearly free of misspelled words and grammatical errors.
