1. Bell Work

3. Standards & Essential Questions
SPI0807.Inq.1
Design a simple experimental procedure with an identified control and appropriate variables.
SPI0807.Inq. 3
Interpret and translate data into a table, graph, or diagram.

4. Independent Work Metric Conversions
Write the correct abbreviation for each metric unit.
1) Kilogram __Kg___ 5) Millimeter __mL___
2) Meter ___m__ ) Liter __L___
3) Gram __g___ ) Kilometer __Km___
4) Milliliter __mL___ 8) Centimeter ___cm__
9) Milligram __mg__
Try these conversions, using the ladder method.
10) 2000 mg = 2 g ) 198 g = .198 kg
11) 104 km = m 17) 75 mL = .075 L
12) 480 cm = 4.8 m ) 50 cm = .5 m
13) 5.6 kg = 5600 g ) 5.6 m = 560 cm
14) 8 mm = .8 cm ) 16 cm = 160 mm
15) 5 L = 5000 mL ) 2500 m = 2.5 km
22) 65 g = mg
23) 6.3 cm = 63 mm
24) 120 mg = .12 g
Compare using <, >, or =
25) 63cm < 6 m ) 43mg < 5g
26) 536cm = 53.6dm ) 1,500mL > 1.5L
27) 5g > 508 mg ) 3.6m > 36cm

5. Metric Mania Challenge
Your Team will need to be the quickest team and get the correct answers to win the Metric Mania Challenge (25 points).
Complete the following problems at your lab tables.
27 mm= __________cm
3.4 g= __________mg
0.125 kg= _________mg

6. SM: #10. Paper Airplane Lab
Scientific Processes Used:
Formulating and Testing Hypotheses
Identifying and Controlling Variables
Measurement and Data Collection
Materials Needed:
Paper; 2 other papers you choose; SNB; Data page
Directions:
Your group has to make a decision: What are you TESTING? Which type of paper for the paper airplane flies the farthest?
Once you have decided, your group needs to complete the SM template in your SNB. (Observe, Question, Hypothesis, Procedures/ Test, Results/ Data, Conclusion)
Once your group is ready to test, your teacher will show you where to go. The taped distance is 15 feet, but you will need to record the distance your airplanes travel. (one block = 1 foot)
When all the trials are completed, return to your lab table and complete the data table.
The Data table will be checked for an individual GRADE! GLUE IN for NOW!
