Physics September 7-11, 2015

This week we will work through the scientific method - from start to finish!  Students were given toy cars, cardboard, felt, aluminum foil as well as access to supplies available in the lab.  As teams, you decided on a "question" to investigate using these tools.  On Tuesday, you will finish up your projects and write up lab reports.  I saw lots of ramps, calculators, meter tapes and good old- fashioned ingenuity!  Vocabulary words this week are all related to the scientific method:
testable question, hypothesis, variable, independent variable, dependent variable, data, analysis, conclusion, communication
