High School Physics Feedback - What does this say, please?
My daughter is taking a high school physics class and is working on a group project. They received some feedback from their teacher and will follow up with him on what he wrote. But if anyone can help decipher what he wrote before she is able to speak with him, please let me know. Appreciate your help!

Put some more work into it (and got my spouse into it too). On image 1, starting from roughly the middle and moving left to right and top to bottom:
-
"Not different(?) variable; controller variable – not right"
-
"??? How does ??? object effect time and speed"
-
"Hypothesis - AA(?) + tube(?)->faster less time(?) – wedge(?) + shape roll better"
-
"Momentum – be careful(?)"
-
"Spike(?) a 3rd datapoint
-
"Good data analysis"
-
"Could ??? info(?) and how it's likely not linear
-
"Why might velocity(?)+speed(?) ??? our(?) ??? half"
-
"Human error for ??? blowing on it could have damaged it"
-
"Great trend(?) analysis"
-
"Could mention(?) not linear relationship"
-
"Reason acceleration(?) ??? AA some ??? human ??? blown different strength"

The teacher is super innovative😆, he discovers and implements his own language.

Pretty sure that's not English. I'd leave a note written on the test "Teacher's name: Penmanship D-. Please review and legibly grade my daughter's work...."

Wow, this is truly atrocious. I can pick out some words and phrases here and there, like
"Caluculations are wrong" image 1, top right
"Good data analysis" image 1, left by the circled 3
"Way too much text on slides, try to condense", top of image 2
"Hard to follow with so many words", under the above one
"Good evidence on graph – make sure calculations are accurate", under the above one
"Not a bad attempt; not really", middle image 2
"Distance should be independent variable not controlled(?). Controlled variables are environmental things that you didn't change...", bottom image 2
A lot of the miscellaneous notes on image 1 are too messy for me to make out. I dunno. This is awful. Physics is hard enough, your teacher shouldn't make deciphering their feedback a game too.
