Students best learn science by doing science.
Science is not merely a collection of facts and theories but a process, a way of thinking about and investigating the world in which we live. This standard addresses those skills that are used by scientists as they discover and explain the physical universe - skills that are an essential and ongoing part of learning science. State a problem about the natural world in the form of a question. Use technology to present the design and results of investigation. Keep a journal record of observations, recognizing patterns of observations and summarizing findings.
