All students must use the scientific processes, with appropriate laboratory safety techniques, to construct and extend their understanding in all science content areas!
Science Safety-
I CAN:
- describe science safety rules and explain why they are necessary.
- identify and use science safety gear (e.g. goggles, gloves, aprons).
- listen and follow directions and explain why this is an important part of science class.
- understand which senses can be used and when during science investigations.
Scientific Method & Science Process Skills-
I can:
- explain the purpose of the Scientific Method and describe each step while providing an example.
- effectively use the Scientific Method.
- utilize the process skills essential to science inquiry/literacy: observe, compare, classify, utilize numbers, measure, communicate, collect, record, interpret data, predict, infer, define based on observations, hypothesize, make/use models, identify & use variables, experiment/investigate.
Science Inquiry-
I CAN:
- observe and ask questions about the natural environment.
- plan and conduct simple investigations.
- employ simple equipment and tools to gather data and extend the senses.
- use appropriate mathematics with data to construct reasonable explanations.
- communicate about observations, investigations, and explanations.
- review, and ask questions about the observations and explanations of others.
