No curse words were used inside this room.

Every student remained in his/her seat until independent practice.

By the time Ms. Chan goes over this list, every table has 2 chairs behind it.

Announcement

• You have a TEST this FRIDAY.

• Remember to place your HW into the Assignment Box by the end of IP.

• Notes: Only what’s bolded and underlined.

Agenda

Review HW (as needed)

Direct Instruction: Graphing data (3 slides)

IP: Draw conclusions from 6 different graphs

Closing: Homework (11 questions)

Are there any questions on the HOMEWORK?

• DO NOT COPY WORK. JUST ASK ME FOR HELP!

Yesterday …

• We talked about ________________, which is how scientists express very big or very small numerical results more precisely & accurately.

• Today, we will talk about how scientists express their results from experiments in GRAPHS.

9/28 Notes: Graphing

• Why graph your results?– It is the EASIEST way to see whether there is

a relationship between 2 things (the IV and DV).

–Graphs allow us to draw conclusions about the things that we are testing.

There are MANY different types of graphs, each with their own purpose.

Line Graphs• Show 1 changing relationship.

• Begin with a DATA TABLE.

–X – AXIS = IV (what you’re testing)–Y – AXIS = DV (what you’re testing the IV on)

X value Y value

Example:

Bar Graph• Compares data for SEVERAL individual

items/events

• Also begins with a data table that is then used to graph.

Example: What can you conclude from this graph?

Example 2• Take 15s to look at the chart.• What is the IV?• DV?

• Which type of graph would you want to use to represent this data more easily?

• What is 1 conclusion you can make from this data?

Example graph from an article about

skeletal muscle fat oxidation in African

American and White women.

Independent Practice (10 pts)

• Do this on a SEPARATE piece of paper. You are to place it into the Assignment Box at the end of the period.

• If you finish early, you will begin the HW for tonight. The HW is 11 questions, worth 5 points. It is due tomorrow.

Independent Practice

At each of the 8 stations, there is some sort of data presented, either in a TABLE or a GRAPH.

On a SEPARATE piece of paper, you are to write the name of the station & at least 1 conclusion you can draw from this data.

You only need to draw conclusions from 6 of the stations for full credit.

Name: Date: Period:IP title: Graphing

Figure 4:

According to this line graph, the Energizer battery alkaline battery lasts the longest.

What goes into the Assignment Box today?

(1) The Scientific Notation HW from last night.

(2) The Independent Practice work from today.

Closing

• Your HOMEWORK tonight is the half sheet of paper.

• The HW is worth 5 points, there are 10 questions that you must answer.
