Objectives Today I will look for key ideas regarding the scientific method. So that I can (1) Identify the steps in an experiment, (2) Identify the variables in a scientific investigation. I know I have when I have matched terms to the scientific method and can identify variables in experiment scenario. I can pass my exit quiz with 70 Percent.

(1) Answer T and F as a group. Top 3 groups that answer correct receive a ticket.

T/F Forming a hypothesis is the first step in the scientific method. Make observation A scientific law is different then a scientific theory because it describes something in nature without attempting to explain. T In order for a hypothesis to be testable, scientist need to be able to carry out the investigations that will either support or disprove it.

T/F Continue The experiment group is the group that is left alone during the experiment. F-control group The manipulated variable is the same thing as the independent variable. T

Exploring the Scientific Method (Matching) C=0 When teacher debriefs or student shares 2=as a group H= ask 3 before me A= Matching text information M=none P= Students will work with group to match terms to definitions. When group is done raise your hand and instructor will check if it’s correct. Once time is up class will review and make corrections if needed. S=Check for success

Objectives SC.8.N.1.1 Today I will watch a video on variables and answer key questions. So that I can (1) identify variables in an experiment. (2) Explain the importance of an independent variable. (3) Explain what makes an experiment valid. I know I have it when I have completed my Cornell notes and reflection. I can list in order and match the steps of the scientific method.

Video Variable Champs https://www. youtube. com/watch C=0 during video and level 2 with group (only communicate with group) H= ask 3 before me A= Cornell notes video M=none P= Looks like students copying down Cornell Notes Frame work . Watching the video at a conversation 0. Once video is complete students will communicate only with their group and answer the questions for the activity. When time runs out we will debrief and make corrections. S=Check for success.

Does the amount of water affect the growth of the plant? Name Date Period Page Scientific Variables Essential Questions: What are the factors that make an experiment valid? Questions Claims and Evidence What are the things kept the same? (Control) What is being changed? (Independent variable) What was the scientific problem? What makes an experiment valid? (True) The same plant, location and the amount of light being received. The amount of water each plant receives is being changed. Does the amount of water affect the growth of the plant? You can only change or test one variable at a time?

How can you distinguish the difference between an independent Name Date Period Page Scientific Variable 2 Essential Questions: How can you distinguish the difference between an independent Variable and a dependent variable? Questions Claims and Evidence 5. What do you call the variable you change? 6. What is the purpose of a control? 7. What procedures were given for the independent variable? 8. What was the dependent variable in the experiment? Reflection: (Write down several things you learned that make an independent variable different from a dependent variable) Independent variable These factors have to be kept the same for the experiment to be true. Water one plant every other day an another every day? The growth of the plant would be the dependent variable based on the amount of water recieved.

Which of the following is a way to gather empirical evidence? Bell Work C=0 M=none Bell work August 22 Which of the following is a way to gather empirical evidence? A. Conduct research on the internet and in textbooks B. make first person observation during an experiment C. read reports from other experiments that have some of the same variables as your experiment. D. gather opinions from classmates, teachers, and scientists

Objective Today I make observation during a video and look for key details about the scientific Method by determining the variable tested. So I can identify (1) types of variables in an experiment and (2) Explain the role of each type of variable. I know I have it when I have completed my Cornell Notes and I have identified the correct variables. I can answer my exit questions with a 70 percent accuracy.

Study Jam Scientific Method Essential Questions: What factor determines if humming birds are more attracted to red ? Questions Claims and Evidence What was Mia’s scientific question? What was her independent variable? What factors did she try to control? What was the dependent variable? Why were trials and data important ? Reflection: (Write down two evidences that support her hypothesis or claim.) Name Date Period Page Are humming birds more attracted to the color red? The different colors of the bird feeders. The size and shape of feeders, same amount of food, height and same time of feeding The amount of bird food consumed. Trials created more support or trends during the experiment and the data provided for analysis to see if the hypothesis was correct. Humming birds spent more time around the color red evident by the least amount of food left. You could visually see humming birds circulate around the color red
