Here is my Variable Science Experiment Picture: Summary: This week, my class discussed variables. Some of these 'variables' are the Manipulated (Independent), the Responding (Dependent) and the Controlled . We watched videos and did experiments on these 'variables.' The manipulated variable is a changed variable. This is a variable that you can change in your experiment. Example: Sunny wondered if changing the texture on the surface would change how fast the ball would move. The responding variable is how the object will react to the manipulated variable. It is like cause and effect. The cause: The Manipulated Variable. The effect: The Responding Variable. Example: Sunny noticed that the ball went faster on smoother surfaces and went roughly on not so smooth surfaces. The control variable is a variable that you keep the same. Example: Sunny kept the temperature the same in the room. SP8: Obtain, evaluate and communicate information: During this week, my
