Description
Review the concepts of observation and inference as students gather information about a scenario and then make personal inferences based on their observations in our inquiry activity. Students draw their own conclusions and then communicate their findings by creating a story or comic strip to explain their observations and inferences in detail. It's a great way to illustrate that even though we see the same evidence, we all arrive at different conclusions.
This product includes:
* Engaging 6 slide PowerPoint to guide them through the activity
* 3 Student pages with rubric
Students will:
* Use evidence provided in a photo to draw conclusions
* Follow the Powerpoint to determine if their findings fit the new evidence
* Create a story or comic to explain their findings
TEACHERS LOVE THIS, HERE'S WHY:
❤️ Brittany G. says, "This was a fantastic resource! I have been teaching science for over 10 years and always find observation/inference activities to lack real critical thinking opportunities and this activity delivered just that! My students had a great time coming up with their stories and comics and it made a great bulletin board display!"
❤️ TpT Seller says, "My kids loved this!! I used to with my 5th graders at the beginning of the year and I saved the third excavation site for the second day of the lesson and they were begging to find out what it was!"
