Catalyst
Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst
Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday
Your catalyst today is a little bit different. Below, you will find three statements. Your catalyst today is to write each statement three times on your catalyst sheet.
(1)I change the Independent Variable. (x3)
(2)The Dependent variable Depends on what I change. (x3)

Today’s Objectives
SWBAT identify independent, dependent, and constant variables in a scientific experiment.
SWBAT explain the significance of specific variables in a scientific experiment.
![Page 6: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Scientific Inquiry
Scientists use certain ways of thinking. This is called scientific inquiry. Our first unit with be on developing these ways of thinking!!
![Page 7: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Observation
Did you notice the weather outside when you arrived at MSE? If so, you made an OBSERVATION.
Observation: information from your sensesExample: You can observe how tall or smooth an object
is.
![Page 8: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Inference
Did you ever try to explain why something is a certain color or why it smells like vinegar? If so, you made an INFERENCE.
Inference: an untested conclusion based on your observation.
Example: You infer that Ms. P loves peppermint gum because you OBSERVED blue gum hanging out of her mouth constantly…

Inferring from an Observation
Scientists might observe that one star is brighter than the others.
What could you infer about this star?
![Page 10: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Inferring from an Observation
Scientists might observe that one star is brighter than the others.
Scientists could infer that the star is bigger, hotter or closer to Earth.

Experiments - Variables
You can only test 1 THING AT A TIME. Otherwise it is not fair.
So what is a variable?
![Page 12: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
VARIABLE
Able to
Change
Variable: A factor that can change in an experiment. Every experiment has two – cause effect
![Page 13: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Experimentation
Types: 1 independent variable1 dependent variableThe purpose of an experiment is to test how changing ONE THING affects something else.
![Page 14: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Independent Variable -The part of the experiment that is manipulated or changed by the scientists or person performing the experiment
“I Change the Independent Variable”
![Page 15: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Teacher Models
Scientists have discovered something shocking: if you eat a lot of candy, then you will gain fat. What is the independent variable?A. Eat a lot of candyB. Type of candy you eatC. Amount of candy you eatD. How much weight you gain
![Page 16: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Scientific Method-Controls and Variables
Dependent Variable- The part of the experiment that is affected by the independent variable
The dependent variable is what you measure in an experiment
“The Dependent variable Depends on what you do”
![Page 17: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Teacher Models
Happy students learn more in school. So, Ms. P believes that starting school later would increase test scores. What is the dependent variable?A. Starting school laterB. Happy studentsC. Time that school startsD. Test scores

Variables
Independent Variable: what causes the change we are measuring (acts independently)
Dependent variable: what gets changed (depends on other things)
RememberVariables are always CATEGORIES of
things: time, amount, frequency, size, typeVariables are NEVER specific things!!!
![Page 19: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Control Variables
Everything but the independent and dependent variable must be kept constant.Constant: variables we keep the same
If many different things change at once, we don’t know what causes the change!
![Page 22: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Control Variables
Control variable: a variable which does not change during an experiment keeps results accurate AKA: constant
![Page 23: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Control Variable – Example 1
Hulk Hogan and The Rock are both out of shape and want to get their muscles back. Hogan thinks that eating a lot of carbs will bulk him up, but The Rock says that it doesn’t matter what Hogan thinks, you need to eat meat to bulk up.
![Page 24: Catalyst Remember, we always enter silently and immediately begin on our catalyst Catalysts are graded for participation every Friday Your catalyst today.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9e5503460f94a8867f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Control Variable – Example 1
Hogan and The Rock decide to run an experiment: both of them will work out and Hogan will eat carbs while The Rock eats meat to see who gets bigger faster.
Control Variables• How often they work out• What kind of exercises they do• How much of the other food groups they eat

Control Variable – Example 2
You decide to run an experiment to see if eating breakfast makes a difference in performance at school.

Conclusion
A proper experiment always has an independent variable and dependent variable. Everything but the independent and dependent variable must be kept constant. Independent Variable: what causes the change
we are measuring Dependent variable: what gets changed Control variables: variable we keep the same
