Unit One Review “The Bluffing Game”
How to Play: • Split up into two teams. • Each team will be asked a questions. • If you think you know the answer stand up. • The more people you have stand up, the more points you can earn (or lose). • The other team then gets to select a person to answer the question. • If that person gets the answer correct, then the team gets 100 points for every person standing. • If that person gets the answer incorrect, then the team loses 100 points for every person standing.
Topics Covered: • Identifying Variables • Writing Good Hypotheses • Graphing • Characteristics of Life • Levels of Organization • The Scientific Method
