Today we completed the Chapter 11 Math Worksheet For more practice, try:

We discussed science and technology and how each depends on the other.

We reviewed the Scientific Method (see notes below).
 * Make an observation (using your senses)
 * The observation usually results in a Question
 * Develop a hypothesis (educated guess)
 * Test the hypothesis with an experiment
 * Independent Variable - the variable that we change
 * Dependent Variable - the result of the change in the independent variable
 * Gather Data
 * Analyze Data
 * Draw a conclusion (Does it support the hypothesis?)

We discussed the difference between a Scientific Theory and a Scientific Law.

We used **K H D U d c m** to make SI unit conversions.
