- I can justify my choice of a better-performing object using data and evidence from tests. #dok3
Big Ideas
- Testing and analyzing objects helps us choose the best solution to a problem.
- Objects designed for the same task may work differently, and comparing their strengths and weaknesses helps inform decisions.
Essential Questions
- How can testing different objects help solve a problem?
- What does it mean for an object to have strengths and weaknesses?
- How do we use data to decide which object works better?
- Why is it important to compare different solutions to the same problem?
- What evidence do we need to justify a choice between two solutions?
