Stations November 11th - November 15 th. Project Overview. Thinking Like a Scientist.
E N D
Project Overview Thinking Like a Scientist Students will learn how to act like a scientist this week in stations. They will learn the questions scientist asks, how to make observations, how to conduct experiments, and also how to collect and record data while using scientific tools. This week will help them for our next project, which will be geared around science.
