Mod 2 and 7: Richie's Potty Chart
Go over Animal Hierarchy and make observations about the chart.
HW: Come up with 5 reasons for any of the observations. For example, Tuesday and Friday both have three stars because of the same routine, possibly going to the babysitter.
Mod 3, 4 and 9: Richie's Potty Chart
Discuss reasons for the observations, and discuss how this chart fits into the scientific method.

Mod 3, 4, 9
Day 8: Richie's Potty Chart (RPC)
Collect What is Physics?! Exit form, class policy and lab safety sheet
Analyze RPC and look for maximums, minimums, equalities, inequalities and trends.
HW: 5 hypotheses (possibilities) for any of the observations
Example: Tuesday and Friday have the same amount of stars because Richie has the same schedule on those days.
