Grade 4- eDay 1 Science

You are going to design your own experiment! 

1. You will create an incline plane with varying heights. Your incline plane could consist of books, magazines, or any other flat surface (plane). You will also need to find an object that can roll down the incline. A few possibilities for this object would include a matchbox car, a can of vegetables, a ball, etc.

2. You will want to have 3 trials for your experiment.

3. The variable (part of your experiment that changes) is the height of your incline plane. In order to change this, you will want to add or remove materials (books, magazines, etc.)

4. Use the scientific method to complete the investigation. Use your ruler to measure the distance your object travels and record your observations of the difference in distance traveled.

5. Record your answers below.
