In small groups, we observed, wrote our thoughts in observation logs, made predictions, and compared the caterpillars. It was so fun that more videos than photos were taken, ;)
??? What do your caterpillars look like? details ?
??? Are they all the same size? color?
??? What caterpillar behavior did you notice?
Planning and setting up our control groups and variables (yes- we always use the authentic language of the discipline):
Your child designed his/her control for planting a lima bean then planned a variable for each section. The second row mirrors the first using popcorn kernels instead to maximize comparison opportunities.
??? What did you put in your egg carton? Why?
??? What is a control in a true experiment ? variable ?
??? What variables did you design to investigate?
