Reflection
Students are asked to evaluate their data findings, reflect on their learning and understanding of the topic, and present their data. To elicit this ability, writing in science has become a major component of my science curriculum. Developing a child's ability to explain and justify their findings is an important skill all students need. To accomplish this:
- Students utilized subject based vocabulary in reflections, discussion questions, notes, and observations.
- Students learn to write as if they are the "scientist" because during that time they are a geologist, biologist, ecologist, or engineer by reading, doing, and taking part in their Science education.
