Information: Most topics are done well in Khan Academy. If you haven't created an account and joined the Polaris Class, please DO SO before you begin working. Otherwise, you won't get any credit! If you joined last year's Polaris Class, you should join this year's class the next time you use the site. Make sure you signed up with Email. Adult Learner.
After Khan Academy, try other websites that may help you understand these concepts better. I will share some of these. If you have a Kaplan book, it too will be excellent in helping you understand the concepts.
If You haven't been on Kahn Academy recently, please check to see if you have the following class code, and if not, please update it.
JUST CLICK ON THIS LINK and follow Khan's instructions.

Activity: *** Experiment: If you have family available, you can fly paper airplanes together or just complete this experiment by yourself. Remember when writing a hypothesis it should be an "If...Then statement" For example: If I don't water the plant (Independent variable), then the plant will die (Dependent variable). Decide what one variable you will change for each plane and which one is your control plane to compare the changed variable(s) to. My control plane is the most basic paper airplane with nothing special done to it. You can have your independent variable be different kinds of paper same size, weight put on different parts of the plane, or even different sizes of planes made from same kind of paper. You decide. Find the mean and median of your data. Have fun with this as you put the scientific method into action! https://camillasenior.homestead.com/Paper_Airplanes_and_Scientific_Methods.pdf
