LESSON OUTLINE
5min> Students complete the Do Now.
5min> Teacher outlines the procedure for the MiniLab.
10min Randomly selected volunteers record how long they can hold their breath after 0, 15, 30, and 60 seconds of cardiovascular exercise (hopping on one foot).Skipped due to hot weather. Used provided sample data.
10min Students determine the independent variable, dependent variable, constants, hypothesis, and title.
10min Students plot their data; add an appropriate trendline; complete an analysis; and make a prediction for 45 seconds of exercise.
5min Practice setting star CER. (A = Boneless Chicken Wings; B = Cooked Chicken Meat Lumps; C = Chicken Nuggets)
5min Practice trendline interpretation (Use p3 in notebook). Which works best for flavor in gum? Which works best for productivity and time?
5min Collect materials. Clean up. Wrap up.
