  1. Writing Procedures

  2. WARM UP Why is it important to have multiple trials during an experiment? Why is it important to have detailed and complete procedures?

  4. Problem: An Alien landed on earth and discovered the peanut butter and jelly sandwich and wants to take back the recipe to their alien planet …. • Question: How do you make a perfect peanut butter and jelly sandwich? • Hypothesis: If I put an equal amount of peanut butter and jelly on slices of bread, then I will have a delicious peanut butter sandwich because the equal ratio produces the best tasting sandwich. • Independent variable: amount of peanut butter and jelly • Dependent: taste of sandwich • Control: same type of bread
