Inquiry | Reflex Experiment

 

For inquiry this term we have been learning about the different body systems and Ms Kirkpatrick set up a experiment for us that helped us find evidence to support our learning of how our body systems help us in everyday life. The experiment was called 'The ruler drop test'. For this experiment we were to get in partners. Nickaela and I worked together and we did amazing job. Our first experiment was the visual test which meant our partner had to drop the ruler without saying anything to us. This meant the ruler could drop any minute or probably second. Our second test was the hearing test. For this test our partner had to close their eyes and the other partner had to say go and drop the ruler. Our last experiment was the touch experiment. For this test our partner had to close their eyes and instead of saying go our partner had to touch us and drop the ruler. This was the hardest test of all because sometimes our partners didn't touch us hard enough to feel it. At the end of the experiment we were to get into groups of four and make a bar graph that showed our results in each of the test. I learnt that girls have faster reactions than boys.
