What students see
Show us your paper airplanes. State your directional hypothesis, name the independent and dependent variables, and report the results of your flight trials.
Why it works
Reporting a result out loud shows whether students connect their variables to what happened. Watching classmates' versions gives the class more results to compare.
How to run it
- Add it to your Space. The Topic comes with this prompt and these settings, and you can edit both.
- Share the Topic link with your students.
- Watch the posts come in. They appear to everyone as soon as students publish.
Make it yours
Replace the airplanes with any simple experiment. In middle school, give students a hypothesis sentence to complete.
