6Science with the Stars!!!
- Starring
- One Direction, Ariana Grande, Ryan Seacrest, and
Albert Einstein!
7Purpose
I get it! I can ask Which flavor of gum lasts
longer? Juicy Fruit or Mr. Wonkas?
- Why are you performing the experiment?
- What question would you like answered?
- Phrase question so it is specific and therefore
able to be tested! - Which brand of gum is the best? ???
- How can we test EVERY brand of gum?
- What is meant by the best?
- Which brand of gum, Bubbalicious or Bazooka,
blows the biggest bubbles? ??? - Able to be tested and answered definitively!
8Hypothesis
We hypothesize that well sell more albums this
year than last - because, lets face it, girls
love us!
- Educated Guess
- Based on your prior knowledge and experience,
what do you think will happen? - Example
- I think Bazooka gum will blow the biggest bubbles
because I chew it a lot at home and have blown
some huge bubbles with it! - It is unacceptable not to make a hypothesis or
write I dont know.
9Materials
Materials Needed to Be a Pop Star recording
contract, makeup artist, hair stylist
- List of objects you will use to perform your
experiment - Be specific enough so that a complete stranger
could repeat your experiment if necessary - Example
- Two packs of gum (one Bubbalicious and one
Bazooka), timer, ruler with measurements in
inches.
10Procedure
- Practice and hard work.
- Sign a record label
- Become a country pop star.
- More practice and hard work.
- 5. Sell millions of albums
- The exact description and order of the steps
taken to perform the experiment - Again, be so specific that a complete stranger
could understand and repeat the experiment if
necessary - Example
- 1. Unwrap and chew 1 piece of Bubbalicious bubble
gum for 30 seconds (use timer). - 2. Blow bubble as large as possible.
- 3. Using ruler, partner will measure diameter of
bubble to nearest tenth of an inch. - 4. Repeat steps 1-3 with 1 piece of Bazooka
bubble gum. - 5. Compare diameters of bubbles blown.
11Results
The results are in!!!!! The next American Idol
is..
- What did you observe?
- Be specific give measurements if appropriate.
- Be OBJECTIVE do not draw any conclusions or
give your opinion here - Example
- While Bubbalicious gum can produce a bubble with
a diameter of 3.7 inches, Bazooka gum can produce
a bubble with a diameter of 4.2 inches.
12Conclusion
I conclude that if you study and apply these
terms, youll be a master scientist in no time!
- Explain the significance of your results
- Answer the purpose question
- Example
- Bazooka blows bigger bubbles (by 0.5 inches) than
Bubbalicious bubble gum.
