During our laboratory investigations, we made
charts and graphs.
For example
37
Step 1 We asked

• Does the advertising on the outsides of candy
  wrappers give an accurate picture of the candies
  inside?

38
Step 2 We observed and recorded databyhand
39
Step 3We then recorded data in a spreadsheet
chart
40
Step 4 From the chart, we created a graph
Chart
Graph
41
Step 5 We formatted the graph
became this...
42
Step 6We compared our data with data observed
by other students
43
Step 7We answered our own question
The pictures on Skittles candy wrappers do not
seem to show exactly whats inside
44
We used Inspiration softwareto make concept
mapswhich helped us understand the States of
Matter much better
