Getting Started Procedures: (15 points) • Select twelve of your favorite food items. • Examine the characteristics of each item selected. • Create up to four categories based on the similarities between each food item. (ex.. dairy, proteins, fatty foods, breads, etc..) • Create up to three rows of characteristics based on the similarities between each food item. (ex…sweet, salty, soft, hard, etc.) • Organize your foods as Mendeleev organized the periodic table. Identify patterns and group the food items into horizontal and vertical rows and columns.
