Observations and Inferences Notes PAGE 33

observationinference -based on 5 senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste) -a factual statement -lead to developing a problem for the scientific method. - a logical interpretation of an event based on observations and prior knowledge (what you think is happening based on what you observe) -may be incorrect

Guided Practice!  I walked into my classroom this morning and the lights were on.  Observation-  the lights were on.  Inference-  I must have left them on when I left last night  The custodian must have come in and turned the lights on last night.  Another teacher came in this morning and turned on the lights.

Practice on your own!  Please copy the following statement on your scratch sheet of paper.  Circle the observation.  Underline the inference.  I walked outside this morning and the ground was wet. It must have rained last night.

Assessment- write 3 observations and 2 inferences.
