100
What is Use your 5 senses to look at an object/event and tell about its characteristics
The definition of an observation?
100
What is the Experimental Question?
Will people exposed to UV light have less wrinkles than people who are not exposed to UV light?
100
What is ONE Thing?
How many things do we change in an investigation?
100
What is a control set-up
The SET-UP that stays the same (This is what you are comparing your results to)
200
"What is Create a hypothesis"
Before you do an experiment, what should you do?
200
What is a hypothesis
An educated prediction
200
What is a hypothesis?

What is Waft?
Waving a hand over something to identify its smell.

"What do you do after you collect your lab data?"
Analyze and look for patterns in your data
300
What is Inference
The room smells good because there is pizza in the oven is an example of this
300
What is the dependent variable?
Recording the color change of a UV bead in a data table
300

Scientists always do more than one of these to ensure their results are believable and reliable.
300
What is a conclusion?
A summary of our findings written in the CER formative
400
"What is the procedure or method"
The STEPS (can be description or drawings) of how to do an experiment. It must include both the experimental set up and the control set-up.
400
What is the independent variable?
the thing you deliberately change in an experiment
400
What is the independent variable?
testing gummy bears in water to gummy bears not in water
400
What is # of trials
When creating a data table this is always found in the first column? (Best to have 10 or more trials for a believable investigation)
400
What is the the experimental set-up, control set-up, AND labels
When drawing a method or diagram of our lab plan this must be included.
500
Observe, ask a question, make a hypothesis, plan and carry out an investigation, collect data, analyze data, Communicate your conclusion with others (answer question with Claim, Evidence, Reasoning).
"What are the practices of science?"
500
What is the dependent variable?
the effect you are observing or measuring in an investigation
500
What is his dependent variable?
The speed of M&M dissolving in water (When Yoda tests his hypothesis that red M&Ms dissolve faster than yellow M&Ms when placed in water.)
500
What is Dependent Variable and Units
When creating a data table this is always found in the second column?
500
What is a horseshoe crab?
This is Ms. Kostka's favorite animal
