This Week In Science #3 .

     This week in science we did and learned many things . Some of the things we did was we looked at our plants and we recorded how much they grew since the day we had planted them . I had to draw pictures and record their measurements . We also wrote our testable question and our hypothesis. During our data recording we discovered something that proved my hypothesis to be false . I realized that even if you planted the seeds of the brassica rapa deep in the bottom of the cup it would still grow . This week we also wrote procedures of how to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches so we could we ready to write our procedures of how to collect data for our plant investigation . The last thing we did in this week was that we went around the room and surveyed people on their favorite basketball team and created a circle chart with the data , the chart didn't come out as planed though .

    This week we also learned many things . One of the things we learned was our driving question and what we needed to know , like the " if ... then ... because " format . During our data collecting we also learned that if you plant brassica rapa seeds at the bottom of a cup it will still grow at almost at the same speed of the seeds planted in the middle and top , that was very interesting . We also learned how to make good procedures for our plant data collection and how detailed we had to be . During the time when we surveyed the class about their favorite basketball team we also learned many things . Some of the things we learned was that we should have only have a few teams instead of giving people the option to chose any team because it was really difficult for us to graph all the data collected . We did and learned a lot this week , and what we learned will help us in the future because we realized many things that where small but effected what we did big time .
