We used Strand 1 in the classroom when deciding on what project we were each going to come up with- involving candles. We all had previous general knowledge about the uses of candles so we built ideas branching from there.

Strand 2 was met when our group made a hypothesis about how we thought our wick would burn faster if we increased the amount of wax we took away from the candle. We took our previous knowledge and applied it here.

We met Strand 3 because before beginning a completely new assignment, our Professor (Matt) helps us reflect on what certain ideas and concepts really mean to us. After collecting data involving the sand filled balloons, we were able to come up with explanations as to why or why not it wasn't very accurate.

Strand 4: As far as participating in scientific debates goes, we have not exactly addressed that stuff yet. However, we are all usually willing to ask questions when we need to.
