Tooth and nail - Team A
Nails
Take a close look at it! Now everyone make an estimation on how many nails it contains:
Take out the counted packages of nails one by one and weigh them in your palm. Compare the number of nails with their perceived weight. Write down your observations.
Which variables correlate in this experiment? Write down a sentence describing the correlation.
Beam
Estimate without counting how many matches are needed for the half-timber model above.
Now take the matchbox out of the box and build your own half-timber model WITH ONE STORAGE. Expand your model to two storages and observe how many matches are needed additionally. Write down your observations.
Which variables correlate in this experiment? Write down a sentence describing the correlation.
Correlation, Correlation, Correlation
Look back in your notes what you wrote about the different correlations. There were discs, cubes, a vessel of paint, nails and beams! Try to build pairs according to similar correlations and write down what they have in common. One material does not fit - describe what is different with this correlation. Which pairs did you come up with?
