Standard: Show Content Tip
6d Conduct multiple trials to test a prediction and draw conclusions about the relationships between predictions and results.


Holistic Rating: Moderate coverage of this standard.
Pages C8-C9 and D16-D18, D66-D67 provide moderate coverage of this standard and address content at this grade level. However, see note below and the Content Tip for a discussion of "conducting multiple trials."


Aspects that do not help student learning:
Conducting multiple trials usually means repeating the same exact procedure and conditions to determine the reproducibility of the results. The phrasing of the standard leaves open the interpretation that conducting multiple trials could include changing the variables in an investigation. Most of the activities cited by the publisher as meeting the standard involve this latter interpretation of "multiple trials."


Teacher's Edition that we used cited these pages as addressing this standard, but we did not find a significant correlation:
A34-A35, A54-A57, B30-B31, B44-B45, C6-C7, C10-C11.
