Future investigation plan

Choose a teacher-approved safe next question and draft change/match/measure/record steps; identify what would count as an actual observation.

Try it

Choose a teacher-approved safe question about water; no actual experiment is required.

Draft the one change, matched conditions, familiar measurement, intervals and record space. Keep actual outcomes empty until recorded.

Check the product and say why you kept or changed one part. Tell or show it in your usual way: words, drawing, pointing, signing, typing, dictation or your communication device. Work quietly or privately, pause, ask for a helper, or return later. Sharing and recording are optional.

Grown-up help

Look for: No compulsory execution. Record missing actual conduct as unobserved; obtain teacher review before any water activity.

Next help: If a result appears in a plan, separate prediction from recorded observation. “Not recorded” alone does not establish whether an action happened.
