Exploring Variables While Testing and Improving Mint-Mobiles (for High School)
Mint candies are good for more than just one's breath. Using basic materials such as mint candies, straws, index cards, and Popsicle sticks, scholars create race cars that meet a given budget as well as design constraints. They perform...
Curated OER
Variables
Learners watch a video show how to identify the independent variable, dependent variable and controls in an experiment; and design experiments that use controls to isolate a single independent variable and measure the resulting dependent...

Pendulum Lab in 9th Grade Physical Science
Ninth graders conduct experiments to determine what affects the rate of a pendulum's swing. Working in small groups, they identify an independent variable to study and create an experiment to test their hypothesis. When tests are...
Curated OER
Control and Experimental Variables
In this variables in experiments instructional activity, students read about control variables and experimental variables before they respond to 15 graphic organizer and short answer questions.
Curated OER
Variables on Both Sides
Students solve equations with variables on both sides of the equations. For this algebra lesson, students use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to solve problems. They combine like terms and identify the unknown.
Curated OER
Perimeter Pattern
High schoolers investigate perimeter patterns formed by a hexagon and a triangle. They will identify the dependent and independent variable and write a function for the relationship.
Curated OER
Ketchup Lab
In this ketchup worksheet, students investigate the thickness of different types of ketchup. They hypothesize, identify their independent and dependent variables, test their hypothesis and write conclusions based on their data.
