Let the Experiments Begin


The Scientific Method


Question
Information
Hypothesis
Experiment
Record and Study Data
Draw a Conclusion



















We  began most experiments today.  Plans were complete, measurements, charts and supplies in place and the children were eager to go.  There were paper airplanes flying, balls bouncing and rolling, ice cream melting, paper towels being tested for strength and sponges for absorbency.  The activity was robust and the scientists were bursting with enthusiasm.  Experiments should conclude next week with still more to go.  We still have graphs to make, evidence to explain and conclusions to draw.  Can't wait to see what is on the horizon.
