INVESTIGATION AND EXPERIMENTATION

I&E4. Scientific progress is made by asking meaningful questions and conducting careful investigations.

As a basis for understanding this concept and addressing the content in the other three strands, students should develop their own questions and perform investigations. Students will

I&E4a. draw pictures that portray some features of the things being described.

I&E4b. record observations and data with pictures, numbers, or written statements.
