Today students continued to practice identifying the manipulated (independent) and responding (dependent) variables in controlled experiments. I think they’re getting the hang of it! Today’s small group work topic was “Maria’s Mold”. Students were tasked to read a scenario about Maria, a middle school Science student, who was perplexed as to why her morning OJ had BLUE MOLD in it!! Students had to analyze the narrative to extrapolate the problem statement and steps of the Scientific Method, define the hypothesis, analyze how Maria tested the hypothesis, and identify the different variables in her experiment. Homework: SpongeBob worksheet due Friday!
