  1. Checks lab WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH SCIENCE??

  2. DO NOW: • Think about this activity and how it relates to science and the way we go about making sense of the world (scientific method). List all of the possible ways this activity is related to science.

  3. Some things I came up with… • -The process of making observations vs. inferences based on evidence • -Questioning the meaning evidence (inquiry) • - Importance of putting things in order…(origin of life)…when events happen may play a role as to what is going on and why they happen (timing is everything) • - Not everyone comes up with same conclusions based on the same information- science is not entirely objective • - The order of discovery can influence your idea of what is going on (you have to be flexible) • - Not every piece of information is equally important in science (some things might be more fundamental to life) • - Life is expensive (financially, emotionally, energetically- in terms of energy) • - Things change. Life is change. Growth is change. Situations change and they can determine where the rest of your life goes- (children change your focus) and like-wise, environment changes how organisms grow and develop (physically, mentally, etc)- sometimes your internal environment (hormones etc) influence your external one(behaviors), and sometimes the external one influences your internal one (smiling at a stranger, radiation affecting plant growth…).

  4. We used the Scientific Method! • Observations • That’s a lot for a money! • Questioning • What does this check mean? Where was it made? To whom? For how much? When? • Hypothesis • What we thought the answers were) • Testing • First we compared data to other checks- does the story make sense? Does it need to be revised? • Then we compared it to what really happened • Results • Own story compared to the real one • Conclusions • How far off were we? What did we get right? What did we get wrong? Why? What questions does it leave us with?
