Science will be twice per week.
- Lesson 1: This will be an Experiment that involves blogging. You will be expected to open a new post, copy Mr Palmer's blog and paste it on your new post.
- Lesson 2: This will be an Investigation that relates to the topic from Lesson 1. It will be own choice and displayed in a way that you prefer. For example - PowerPoint, Doc, etc
BLOGGING.
All the blogs and science lessons will be displayed on Mr Palmers blog:
Bookmark it!
Expectations:
- 1 blog must be completed per Hurumanu lesson.
- A completed blog must have the four headings ( Aim, Method, Findings, Conclusion), correct writing and punctuation under each heading and be published. No post, no points.
- 2 images of the experiment / investigation on the blog.
Using the Scientific method of investigation:
Aim: What the experiment / investigation is about.
Method: Instructions on how the experiment / investigation is carried out. This includes the equipment.
Findings: What have we learnt or found out from our experiment / investigation. This is called Data, Information or Facts. It is displayed in a chart, table or picture.
Conclusion:
Hurumanu Science Goals:
1. Try and get my work done on time.
2. Not to sit with my friends and talk
WATCH THIS VIDEO AND COMPLETE THE INVESTIGATION.

ReplyDeleteThat's a very good summary of what we call 'scientific method'. I find it interesting that it is specific to what we call 'western civilisations'... basically European peoples. The thinking that we might describe as 'eastern' often presents some different ideas, and only now is our 'western science' beginning to accept that some of this eastern tradition may expand out knowledge. Can you identify some examples from medicine that might fall into that category?
Thank you yes I will
