Science Notebook: Prediction and Result
Name:

Today I am practising: comparing a prediction with an observed result
1
Look at two objects and predict which will roll farther on a ramp.
2
Write or draw your prediction.
3
With adult help, test one object.
4
Test the second object the same way.
5
Record what actually happened.
6
Circle matched or different, then tell an adult one possible reason.
- Use gentle, safe materials such as toy cars and a low cardboard ramp.
- Record the prediction before testing so the two ideas do not get mixed.
- Repeat a trial if possible, emphasizing observation over a preferred outcome.
