Section outline

  • FOCUS / ARONGA

    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

    • We are FOCUSING on developing a methodology to conduct a fair test
    • We are FOCUSING on using information from primary and secondary sources to help predict results
    • We are FOCUSING on identifying the difference between independent, dependent and control variables

    FOCUS: How might we link our Hypothesis to the Variables in our science investigation and how this link help us to create and understand a graph?

    SC: We can: divide the variables into: 1. Independent, 2. Dependent and 3. Control.

                                                                    2. Understand what each variable means and why we use them

                                                                    3. Understand why the x  and y axis on a graph represent the independent and dependent variable.

                                                                    4. Understand how a graph is a representation of the rate of change. ( unit rate)

                                                                     5.  Understand how a pattern on a graph can help us predict  an outcome.
