Q1) What is the order of the seasons?
spring, summer, fall, and winter.
Q2) A traffic light is green. What color will it be next?
Yellow
Q3... [Show More] ) If today is Wednesday, what day will it be 9 days from now?
Friday
Q4) What do seasons, traffic lights, and days of the week all have in common?
They have patterns.
Q5) Grab the blue frog and drop it on any lily pad you want. Observe the pattern you find.
Just choose one 👇
If the blue frog is placed on a red lily pad, he jumps on only red lily pads.
If the blue frog is placed on a blue lily pad, he will jump onto a red lily pad and then only jump on red lily pads.
If the blue frog is placed on a green lily pad, he will jump onto a red lily pad and then only jump on red lily pads.
Q6) Click catch all frogs. Grab the blue frog and put it on a few different pads. Does it follow the same pattern?
Yes, the blue frog continues to jump onto a red lily pad and then only jumps on red lily pads.
Q7) Predict what color lily pad it will go to if placed on the pad in the top-left corner.
Red
Q8) You Just ran an experiment to test a pattern. Was your prediction correct?
Yes it was.
Q9) Put the blue frog on the pad in the top-left corner. What color does it jump to?
Only red
Q10) Collect Data: Place the brown frog on any blue lily pad. Record the colors it visits in order.
R, G, B, R, G, B, R, G, B, R, G, B, R, G, B
Q11) Analyze: Put the brown frog on other pads and watch. what pattern does it seem to follow?
The same pattern as before. If the brown frog is placed onto a red lily pad, it will go onto a green lily pad, then blue. If placed on a green lily pad, the frog will jump onto a blue lily pad, then red.
Q12) What pattern does the pink frog follow?
The pink frog's pattern is jumping to the color it was first placed on, if it was first placed to a red lily pad, then it will only land on red lily pads. if placed on a green lily pad, then it will only land on green lily pads. if placed on a blue lily pad, then it will only land on blue lily pads.
Q13) Does its pattern depend on where it starts? Explain.
No, because its pattern is going to the same colored lily pad. So it doesn't matter where the lily pads are.
Q14) Find the pattern: What pattern does the yellow frog follow?
g,b,b,r,g,g,b
Q15) Extend: Describe the red frog's pattern
The red frog has two patterns. One is just jumping from red lily pads to other red lily pads and only red lily pads. While the other pattern is if you place the red frog on a green lily pad, he will jump onto a blue lily pad then onto a green lily pad, and then blue again repeatedly.
Q16) How are their patterns similar?
The purple and red frogs are similar because if they are placed on red, they will only jump to red lily pads, and if they are placed on a green lily pad, they will jump onto a blue lily pad then back onto a green and back to blue repeatedly.
Q17) How are they different?
The red frog jumps without pausing. The purple frog has a pause every 2 lily pads it jumps.
Q18) Form hypothesis: Put the yellow frog on any pad. Observe it carefully. Try it on other pads. When you think you understand the frog's behavior, write your belief, or hypothesis, below.
You only need to choose one 👇
If the yellow frog is placed on a red lily pad it will jump onto a blue lily pad, then back to a red and onto another blue and it will do that repeatedly.
If the yellow frog is placed on a green lily pad it will jump onto a red lily pad then back to green and then another red repeatedly.
If the yellow frog was placed on a blue lily pad it will jump onto a green lily pad then back to blue and back to green repeatedly.
Q19) From the blue pad at lower left, the yellow frog will next jump to a __________ pad
Green lily pad
Q20) From the red pad at lower right, the yellow frog will next jump to a __________ pad
Blue lily pad
Q21) Test: Run experiments to test your predictions. Were you correct both times? ____________
Yes, I was
Q22) Form hypothesis: Now observe the pink frog carefully. What pattern does it repeat?
g,r,b,g,r,b,g,r,r,b
Q23) Predict: What are the next 10 colors the pink frog will visit if you start it at the bottom left?
g,r,b,g,r,b,g,r,r,b
Q24) Test: Test your hypothesis. What happened?
It went on all the colors I said it would go on.
Q25) Challenge: Can you ever absolutely prove that a hypothesis is correct? Explain.
No, a hypothesis can be rejected or edited, so it can never be fully correct.
Q26) Find a pattern: Place the blue frog on any pad and observe it. What pattern does it follow?
I placed the blue frog on the blue lily pad, it proceeded to jump onto 3 more blue lily pads, then onto a green lily pads, then onto two red lily pads, then onto 3 green lily pads, and then the pattern starts all over again.
Q27) Analyze: No matter where it starts, what color will it visit least in its first 20 jumps? Why?
All the colors. because the pattern is 10 lily pads, 4 blue, 4 green, 2 red.
Q28) Observe: Catch the blue frog by dragging it to the bottom of the screen. Observe the red frog. What rules does it appear to follow?
It will only go to red and blue lily pads, it will always avoid green lily pads.
Q29) What color will it never hit?
Red
Q30) Explain.
The red frog will jump from green to blue lily pads repeatedly.
Q31) Starting on green, what color will the red frog spend most of its time on?
The red frog will jump from green to blue lily pads, but it will spend most of its time on green lily pads.
Q32) Explain.
Every time the red frog jumps to a blue lily pad, it immediately jumps back to a green lily pad and stays idle for about 1 second then jumps back to a blue lily pad and once again immediately jumps to green.
Q33) Observe: Observe the purple frog. What rules does it appear to follow?
Placing the purple frog randomly will give you inconsistent patterns which often result in getting the purple frog to only jump to red lily pads. depending on where you place the purple frog it will make a short pattern before jumping to only red lily pads forever.
Q34) Challenge: Suppose you drop the purple frog on a green lily pad. Will it be easier to predict the color it will be on after 1 jump or after 4 jumps? Explain.
Not really. the patterns are inconsistent because each pattern is different depending on which green lily pad you choose. [Show Less]
