Hi Lakshu,
Thanks for the well wishes! You did some really nice work with the chart.
I have a couple of suggestions for you to consider:
1. For the title of the graph, I would suggest keeping it short and to the point. Typically, the title of the graph should tell you what's on the y-axis and x-axis. In this case, you may want to consider shorten it to " Average Ground Level Ozone Level vs. Distance from Major Highways in St. Louis, MO"
2. For the Y-Axis, I would suggest moving the the LEGEND on the right over to the left side of the graph. This way, the readers can see what those levels mean immediately. Also, I would suggest matching the Y axis title to the title of the graph, i.e. instead of "Average Ozone Level Concentration in parts per billion (ppb), I would suggest " Average Ground Level Ozone Concentration in parts per billion (ppb)"
3. For the X-Axis, it seems a little too busy to me. This may be just because of the page size. However, if this is the final size of the graph, I would suggest that you remove the minor scale from the graph (0.2) and just keep the major scale (0, 1,2,3,4,5,6)
Best of Luck with your project and Have a Great Holiday Seasons!
Willey

Thanks so much for your mail. Sorry I missed seeing your mail. I was sick with sore throat and fever for the past 1 week. Now getting better. Wish you and your family a Happy New Year 2019. I noted down your points and changed accordingly in my graph. I am done writing log book. Only pending is my project board. Thanks again for all your support from the beginning of this project. I will update you after submitting my project in school which is on Jan 16th.
Thanks,
Lakshita

Dear Mr. Willey,
Thanks soo much for your wishes. Thanks again for all your support rendered through out this project. It really helped me a lot. For Graph I got struck for long and you helped me with ideas. I will definitely reach out to you after my exams. High school projects are way different from what I have done so far
Rules are different too. I need some help to start with. Planning to collect information on this during my summer break.
Thanks,
Lakshita

Dear Mr.Willey,
How are you. I had a great summer vacation and excited for starting my freshman on Aug 16th. I started researching for my next project and got approval that I can experiment with Algae. Again this is environmental related project. I opened a separate thread in the category 9-12 Environmental sciences (Help Needed: Experiment with Coccolithophorid Algae). Please help me to understand this further and help with the material findings.
Thanks for all your help as always.
Lakshita
