-
Understand that science doesn’t only happen in a lab or classroom;
-
Design their own investigative question and research plan;
-
Collect data;
-
Learn how to look for patterns and changes in their data;
-
Make logical conclusions based upon their data;
-
Answer or refine their investigative question and/or research plan;
-
Understand what the data indicate for their stream over time.
