DoING Science: Science Process Skills Science is a process through which we learn about the world. We not only learn about science, we actually DO Science! In this slideshow, you will review a few of the many skills involved in doing science. Since they all involve DOING something, I like to think of them as the Science INGs.

OBSERVING using one or more of your five senses to collect information about an object or an event.

Classifying grouping objects according to similar characteristics.

PREDICTING Forming an idea about what will happen in the future based on observations and prior experience or knowledge Which car will travel faster?

INFERRING Drawing a conclusion based on your observations and/or past experience. What happened here?

MEASURING Using a tool to describe an object’s properties in units ruler, thermometer, scale, etc. length, temperature, mass, etc. centimeters, degrees, kilograms, etc. Examples of tools: Examples of properties: Examples of units:

EXPERIMENTING Conducting an investigation to test a hypothesis or to solve a problem.

MAKING MODELS Making a representation of a real object or event.
