The students in grade 7 have designed studies to carry out that will answer some burning questions, in our study of Heat and Temperature. Science in the kitchen is a hot topic these days in the media. Methodology is being questioned and students of the culinary arts are asking "Why?", more often. Students at Connect will be collecting data to answer their own questions, designing their own studies involving the scientific principles and technologies of this unit. Here are a few studies that are being planned.
Which Pan is Better at Evenly Distributing Heat when Baking? Is there is a Faster Way to Freeze Ice than the Classic Hard Plastic? Does Tinfoil work as well as we Think it Does, or is it a Fraud? Quantifiable data will gathered and graphed, and teams will present their findings in a presentation. In mathematics, students are applying their knowledge of diameter and circumference to create artistic creations, gathering inspiration for artists, such as, Kandinsky. Proportional reasoning will be explored in this study.
