My Understandings So Far:
In the Variables Unit I understand what the word means. It means: anything you can change in an experiment that might effect the outcome. I know how you change Variables. If you were running the track in your regular uniform, sneakers and all the other things you need a Variable you could change is your shoes. You could wear high heels but with everything else the same. I understand what a Controlled Experiment is and that you can only change one variable at a time. I also know how to conduct a Controlled Experiment. You focus on one Variable and only that Variable. You don’t change anything else. If you did you wouldn’t know which Variable cause the outcome.
Challenges For Me:
I have a hard time measuring Capacity. I don’t understand the way you do it. It confuses me. I don’t get how you measure it if is past 50. I think a way that could help me is doing it over with somebody who really understands.
Best parts:
The best part about this unit so far is the experiments we do. I like how we had all different sizes and we used them. There was one that was 200 cm long! We had to hang it from the ceiling! It was really funny. Did you know that he longer the string the slower it swings? (or Vice verse) I like writing reflections because it gives you time to write what your thinking about this unit. You can write about why you thought it was a good experiment or why not. If you don’t understand something you can write it down.
