After discussing accuracy vs precision in physical science, we moved into a discussion of error and percent error. Here’s a booklet error and percent error foldable I created for us to glue in our interactive notebooks.
We had a great discussion about how mis-measuring someone’s height by a foot and mis-measuring the height of a mountain by a foot were completely different circumstances.
The problems from this foldable are taken from the Chemistry Workbook for Dummies book. So far, I’ve found the book to have really approachable, clever practice problems.

I’ve also started prepping for our first lab of the year: Hit the Target. This will give us lots of practice calculating error and percent error!

I have followed your blog for a while. I regularly read it . I also teach algebra 1 and physical science. For this particular learning target I have students use nerf guns with the suction on the end- brings a fun factor to the lesson. We set up a bracket and have them compete. Please don't stop sharing – I love your posts and prespective on the things I teach as well!! ��
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
