Students conducted a paper helicopter investigation this week in science that started them thinking about the SAEF. We looked at the key parts to an investigation (testable question, hypothesis, variables, materials and procedure.) Students also investigated the amount of energy in food by burning cheetos and measuring the change in water temperature. On Friday, students had a chance to burn-test food items of their choice to measure the amount of energy contained. This upcoming week, students will explore the various ways they use energy and learn about the 10% rule which will connect back to the ecoscenario projects and food webs done earlier in the unit.
