Study Notes
Observing
- Uses the five senses to understand surroundings.
Describing
- Details an object's color, size, shape, taste, texture, and other observable traits.
Comparing
- Highlights similarities and differences between two objects.
Classifying
- Organizes objects or events into categories based on shared properties.
Hypothesizing
- States the predicted outcome of an experiment.
Measuring
- Uses standard units or estimations to quantify object dimensions.
Inferring
- Explains observations made through the senses.
Predicting
- Offers explanations based on observed patterns and trends.
Experimenting
- Conducting experiments to test hypotheses.
Identifying Variables
- Determining factors affecting an experiment's outcome.
Collecting Data
- Gathering qualitative and quantitative data through observation and measurement.
