  1. Thinking Like a Scientist: Observing Ask questions like: What? How? Why?

  2. Chimp Diet in May Like all animals, chimps prefer to eat certain foods when they are available. Use the information in the table to create a bar graph.

  3. Thinking Like a Scientist: Classifying By classifying the information related to a chimp’s resting, climbing, or feeding, a scientist can better understand chimp behavior. Use the chart to classify the details from the field notes.

  4. Making Models This model shows Jomeo’s movements and behaviors during one day. Use the map to answer the questions.

  5. Scientific Attitudes Discuss and summarize each scientific attitude.

  6. Scientific Reasoning Decide whether the conclusions are reached by objective reasoning or subjective reasoning.

  7. Deductive Reasoning Deductive reasoning occurs when a general idea is applied to a specific example and a conclusion is reached. What conclusions can you reach when you discuss specific examples for these general ideas?

  8. Faulty Reasoning Lines of symmetry on a square and rectangle.

  9. Developing a Hypothesis Offer two hypotheses for why the student's digital music player stopped working.

  10. Design and Conduct an Experiment Identify the manipulated variable, the responding variable and the other two variables in this experiment. Think about a hypothesis for this experiment.

  11. Collecting and Interpreting Data A data table helps you organize the information you collect in an experiment. Graphing the data may reveal any patterns in your data.

  12. Drawing Conclusions Sometimes the same experiment can have very different data.
