|content=This activity would follow previous experience of using a temperature sensor to record over time. The teacher asks the class to predict what happens happens to the room temperature outside school hours. The replies may be used to allow groups to sketch the prediction as a line graph, pin these to the board and discuss when results are available. One student might do this holding a pen while another pulls a paper sheet to their left. Following these predictions, a Data Harvest data logger is set to record over a weekend for example. The class discussion continues when the results have been recorded.
