What is the difference in mental and physical abilities between an average 6 year old girl and a 6 year old girl with down syndrome?

Construct a Hypothesis
I predict that the 6 year old girl with down syndrome will be a little slower with the physical test than the other girl and maybe will have trouble with the mental tests like counting.

Do background research
Children with Down syndrome commonly have slower mental and physical skills than the average child.

Test the hypothesis by doing an experiment
I tested a 6 year old girl with down syndrome and a 6 year old girl without Down sydrome on mental and physical skills

Analyze your data and draw a conclusion
The physical test results do not have a big difference but the mental test results had a pretty big difference.
