This year we will be taking on the view that science is like a toolbox. This idea is that science draws on a suite of methods, not just one (the scientific method).
Our classes completed a reading on Asteroids and Dinosaurs and then generated a list of science process skills that showed "good" science. Here are their lists.
Taz Devils Science Toolbox List:
- use trial and error
- need to have patience
- analyze data and information
- gather and collect data
- look for patterns
- double check work and validate
- make observations
- look at different points of view
- think out of the box
- question things
- communicate and collaborate
- make connections
- questions others work
- experiment
- work off previous ideas
- share their work with others
- support ideas with evidence
- use their imagination
- research subject matter
- ask for help

- open to different ideas
- question everything
- think outside the box
- run tests and experiment
- use imagination
- work hard and take time
- determination, don’t give up
- collect data
- double check answers and validate
