Scientific Method 8/20 – 8/24
Monday 8/20 Agenda Write Learning Goal Bell Ringer I Do – Review Scientific Method Parts Notes You Do – Make note questions, We Do – Guide lesson summary You Do – Scientific Method Choice
Learning Goal and Bell Ringer(p9) Monday 8/20 What are the parts of the scientific method? Learning Goal (multiple this week) I will be able to differentiate the parts of the scientific method. I will be able to differentiate theory and law. Benchmark SC.912.N.1.1 Define a problem based in Environmental Science, and complete the scientific method to reach your own conclusion. SC.912.N.3.4 Recognize that theories do not become laws, nor do laws become theories; theories are well supported explanations and laws are well supported descriptions. Learning Goal Monday Tuesday Friday Thursday Weekly Prefixes
Focused Notes Questions Summary Read through notes and formulate important questions. Questions are to be written on the small side of the notes. Questions will be posted on schoology, some will be used for quiz/tests/bell ringers to help guide all students learning. Summary 4-5 Sentences Address Learning Goals I will be able to differentiate the parts of the scientific method. I will be able to differentiate theory and law. Address questions formed on question side
What are the parts of the scientific method? Ask a question – Make observations Research Make a Hypothesis Test your Hypothesis Analyze your Data Make a Conclusion Communicate your Results
