Learning Target: I can make detailed and accurate observations. Write it down please.
**DO NOT write your name on the card. • On your card: • Write down THREE detailed observations of the item you are given. 1. 2. 3. • No talking. Shhhh!
Pass Your Cards to Mr. Hill please. • You will now be given someone else’s card. • Read the description on the card and wait for instructions.
When I say “Break:” • Walk around and try to find the object that matches the description on your card. • Sit down at that seat. • Can more than one person be at one place? Yes. Stay there even if another person is already there if you think it is a match. Let’s see how we did!
Making Observations • Answer the following questions in your Science Notebook: • What made finding the correct object difficult? • What things could have made it easier? (Brainstorm a list of ideas – write as many as you can!)
Round 2 **Remember, no talking, and DO NOT write your name on the card. • On your card: • Cross out the writing (big X), and flip the card over. • Write down THREE detailed observations of your object. (Use the ideas we discussed!)
Now lets try it again! • Remember, when I say “Break:” • Walk around and try to find the object that matches your card. • Sit down at that seat. How did we do this time?
Making Observations • Answer the following questions in your Science Notebook: • Was it any easier to find the correct object the second time? Why or why not? • Why do you think it is important for scientists to make detailed and accurate observations?
At the bottom of your page (or on the next page), create a DETAILED and ACCURATE drawing of the item below. (Think about size, shape, texture, shading, color, etc.) This represents what you would see in a microscope. It is called the field of view (FOV). Your drawing should look as close to this as you can possibly make it.
