Today’s Activities: ● Measurement Foldable ● Start Airplane project Exit Question: Why do we need to use SI units in science?

6. Friday September 5, 2014 First Five: What is the importance of writing a hypothesis? Learning Target: I can design a single-variable experiment that includes a testable question, clearly identified variables, and a hypothesis. Today’s Activities: ● Airplane Investigation: Plan Build and start lab report Exit Ticket: How could taking inaccurate measurements affect your airplane build? Affect a real airplane?
