Blog 9:Science Fair Proposal

1. What is your hypothesis?
If kindergartens are taught through a certain teaching style, then they will learn better.

2. Identify the dependent (produced), independent(manipulated) and control variables in your hypothesis.
Dependent: level on acquired knowledge of the kindergarten and Independent: teaching style.
Control Variables: kindergartners.

3. What is your connection between your science fair project and your senior project EQ?
My EQ is about how or in what way is it best to become a kindergarten teacher and through my science fair project I intent to find what is the best teaching still in order for the student to grasp the knowledge best.

4.How will you perform the experiment? Include the equipment you plan on using.
I intend to find a way to get a class of aged students and perform at least 3 different teaching styles with them to figure out how kindergartens learn best.
I will need a classroom and the students with material and teaching styles for the students. I will ask the teacher to develop a test to measure understanding.

5.Which category will your project be listed under?
My project would fall under the Behavioral/Social Science category.
