Description

In this activity, students will answer 12 questions regarding science variables. The focus of the questions is to distinguish between independent, dependent, and controlled variables within an experiment. Once finished, they will use the answers to color the corresponding parts of a fun poison dart frog coloring page. I personally designed the frog clipart to match actual poison dart frogs found in tropical rainforests. And best of all, the questions are editable! You can change the wording or create different questions to match your needs.
