As a scientist, data collection is extremely important in our daily work.

Your task is to collect REAL data by yourself in which you will create a data table (including the four essential components of a data table- see your Scooping Up Science Skills Data Table/Graphing packet ) and develop a BAR graph (including the five essential components of a graph) of this data.

You will also have to develop an inference in regards to what you now know about your data by analyzing the data table and graph.

TASKS

Draw or use the data table provided

Create your graph on the back side of this sheet or it can be created on the computer.

Develop an inference by writing it in your spiral or it can be typed.

ONE ANIMAL WAS CHASING ANOTHER ANIMAL- INFERENCE

TWO DIFFERENT ANIMALS DIED IN THIS SPOT- OBSERVATION

WHEN THE ANIMALS WALKED HERE THE GROUND WAS WET- INFERENCE

1.MANIPULATED VARIABLE- A FACTOR THAT IS CHANGED ON PURPOSE IN THE INVESTIGATION.  


RESPONDING VARIABLE- THE OUTCOME OF THE INVESTIGATION THAT MIGHT BE AFFECTED BY THE CHANGE. 


CONTROLLED VARIABLE- STAYS THE SAME DURING THE INVESTIGATION.  


2. CONTROLLED VARIABLES ARE ESSENTIAL IN AN INVESTIGATION TO MAKE SURE THE CHANGE IS THE ONLY DATA YOU ARE COLLECTING. ALSO, CONTROLLED VARIABLES MAKE SURE THAT YOUR DATA IS ACCURATE AND RELIABLE.

REVIEW GUIDE #3

Answers Review Guide #3

1. MV- Temperature
   RV- growth of plant
   CV- soil, pot, water, sunlight

Hypothesis- If you increase the temperature, then the growth of the plant will also increase

2. MV- amount of sugar
    RV- taste of Kool- Aid
   CV- type of sugar, type of Kool-Aid, container

Hypothesis- IF the amount of sugar increases, then the Kool Aid will taste better.

3. MV- amount of candy
    RV- number of cavities
    CV- type of candy, person, size of candy 

Hypothesis- IF the amount of candy increase, then the number of cavities will also increase.

Prediction- I think that if I eat more candy I will get more cavities
