First we came to class. Then right away we got started on our experiment where we tested where bacteria is the most and the least. Also Mr. Finley told us to use the percent of the area in the Petri dish for amount of bacteria. We also took notes on the bacteria underneath the table we drew yesterday. The class had some very good questions like, "Are we doing the percent of the whole dish or just that section." The answer was the just the section. One group did a good job and got Bull Dog Bucks. They explained what they did. First they found out what it looks like out of the box and then divided it by the number of boxes. If any Table didn't finish went in during study hall. Then we started talking about line graphs. It usually shows trends or changes over time. Then he gave us an example on the white board. We had to make a line graph in our notebook to see if we knew how to make a line graph. Next we went over the independent and dependent variable for the graph. The dependent variable is the thing that is getting measured. The dependent variable goes on the y-axis. The independent variable always goes on the x-axis. Then on the smart board Mr. Finley drew a graph for the example on the white board.
