Imagine you tried to set up these experiments in REAL LIFE.
Can you think of any new challenges you might face if you tried these experiments in the real world?

Experiment Ideas worksheet
Experiment Ideas will be shown on-screen for the activity, but you can print them out for students if helpful. |
15 copies |
We suggest students work in pairs to share ideas. Homeschool students can work on their own.
This activity walks students through virtual experiments to help reinforce the concept that an experiment should only change one part (variable), but keep all the other parts the same (controls).
We think it’s best to follow-up these learnings with a hands-on experiment that uses real plants! If you have radish plants leftover from the lesson “Could a plant survive without light?”, you can guide your students to plan and conduct a few classroom experiments.
