Turn to page 8 in spirals Title it “Identifying variables” Create a hypothesis and identify the variables: A student wanted to test how the mass of a paper airplane affected the distance it would fly. One paper clip was added before each test flight. As each paper clip was added, the plane was tested to determine how far it would fly. Hypothesis: If (independent variable), then (dependent variable) Ind. Variable – What I change Dep. Variable – What is measured or observed Control Group- What is unchanged (typically opposite of Independent) Constants – What is kept the same between the control and independent group Hypothesis: If ______, then_____ Independent variable: The weight of the plane Dependent variable: the distance the plane flies Control variable: the plane with no paper clips Constants: how you throw then plane the starting point of where you throw
