Variable Changes

Science Investigation

Fair Testing

Fill out the following table to help you explain the Growing in the dark: Plants and light experiment

Aim - what are you trying to find out?	Do plants need light to grow?
Hypothesis - what do you think your results will be?	The plant in the sun will grow with good health and the plant in the cupboard will grow but not with full pieces
Independent Variable - what variable will you change?	Both
Dependent Variable - what variable will you measure?	The variable I will measure is the height of the plant
Controlled Variable - what variables will you keep the same?	The same type of seeds, the same amount of water and the same type of soil

The students of Room 4 wanted to find out what colour of bird feeders birds preferred. FIll our the table below thinking of which variables you would make independent, dependent and controlled.

Aim - what are you trying to find out?	What colour of bird feeders with the bird prefer?
Hypothesis - what do you think your results will be?	From all the feeders, the birds will mostly prefer eating from the red feeder
Independent Variable - what variable will you change?	The colour of the food
Dependent Variable - what variable will you measure?	The number of birds that visit the feeder
Controlled Variable - what variables will you keep the same?	The colour that the bird mostly prefer, The amount of the food that the bird normally get feeder

This is our group task for this week and last weeks work.We are learning about fair tests science project. We are looking at keeping things the same and changing things.These are a few tasks that I have filled out about what I think
