2+2 = 5 Rule 2 +2 5 George Washington was our second president. This

2+2 = 5 Rule 2 +2 5 George Washington was our second president. This sentence ain’t got not good grammar.

DEFINITION #1 Independent Variable What you change in the experiment (to make life easier

DEFINITION #1 Independent Variable What you change in the experiment (to make life easier for your students, you may want this “change” to be measurable - i. e. weight, mass, volume, height, etc. . )

DEFINITION #2 Dependent Variable The result from the change you made (this variable, also

DEFINITION #2 Dependent Variable The result from the change you made (this variable, also known as data, “depends” on your independent variable and, again, should be measurable)

The INDEPENDENT VARIABLE and the DEPENDENT VARIABLE are close relatives and can be found

The INDEPENDENT VARIABLE and the DEPENDENT VARIABLE are close relatives and can be found throughout the following steps of scientific inquiry: QUESTIONS HYPOTHESIS DATA TABLES and GRAPHS

Let’s try an example. . . Question: How does the length we pull backwards

Let’s try an example. . . Question: How does the length we pull backwards on the toy car affect the distance it will travel?

How does the length we pull backwards on the toy car affect the distance

How does the length we pull backwards on the toy car affect the distance it will travel? Can you identify the IV and DV? IV = length we pull backwards on the toy car DV = distance it will travel LOOK FOR THESE PHRASES THROUGHOUT THE EXAMPLE

Hypothesis If the length we pull backwards on the toy car is increased, then

Hypothesis If the length we pull backwards on the toy car is increased, then the distance it will travel will decrease.

The effect of the length we pull backwards on the toy car on the

The effect of the length we pull backwards on the toy car on the distance it will travel Distance it will travel (DV) Length we pull backwards on the toy car (IV)

The phrase “length we pull backwards on the toy car” and “distance it will

The phrase “length we pull backwards on the toy car” and “distance it will travel” can be seen throughout the entire experiment

Procedure List a 3 -step procedure that would make this a valid (fair) investigation.

Procedure List a 3 -step procedure that would make this a valid (fair) investigation. 1)What am I going to change? (IV) 2)How will I change it? (Include all of the experimental variables from the data chart) 3)What data will I collect? (DV)

Conclusion Write a possible conclusion statement for this investigation. 1) Restate the hypothesis 2)State

Conclusion Write a possible conclusion statement for this investigation. 1) Restate the hypothesis 2)State whether your data supports or does not support the hypothesis 3)Include all of the data (IV and DV) from the graph
