We finished the development and closed the sprint(two weeks). But the code has not been reviewed. So in the third week we don't start a new sprint and keep clean up(refactor) the code. The scrum master told us that we can still log the time to the previous tasks.My question is that since we close the sprint, does it effect the sprint's burn down chart?
Does it affect the burn down chart?

If your definition of done (1, 2, 3) requires that you review your implementation to complete a story, then you cannot take credit for completing the story and the burn down chart does not reflect a completed story. Keep in mind that a user story is either completed or not, and the burn down chart doesn't reflect credit for completing the points until the definition of done is met and the story is complete.I would suggest looking at your process, though. If you started so many stories that you couldn't adequately close them, it sounds like you're taking on too much work. Are you estimating your whole definition of done in your story points? Are you adjusting your story points for the sprint based on your team's velocity? Are your sprints too short (should you plan for 3 week sprints instead of two)?
