In Class Science Projects: Procedure, Results, Data and Conclusion This Week

I am modeling an in-class science project on Liquid Evaporations.  Last week we discussed the first steps of the Scientific Process: Question, Hypothesis, Materials and Procedure.

This upcoming week I will model Procedure (cont), Results, Data and Conclusion.

I added a few "in-progress" projects to show you the range of projects students are working on in class.  All projects stem from 4th Grade Science Standards.

Classification: Science: A Touch of Class

PURPOSE

To show students that many kinds of living things can be sorted into groups in many ways using various features to decide which things belong to which group and that classification schemes will vary with purpose.
