Science and Observation Skills

Today we finished what we were discussing on Friday about Science and the branches of science: Life Sciences, such as zoology and botany; Physical Sciences, such as Chemistry and Physics; and Earth Scieces, such as astronomy and the study of rocks. Students created a graphic organizer showing these branches and should attach it to page 5 in their notebooks. They should now be able to answer the essential questions on page 4 and do their activities to show they understand these ideas.

We also began an observation activity using mystery boxes. Students used observation skills to try to identify what they couldn't see. We will finish this activity tomorrow.
