The fourth graders explored mystery sound boxes this week. They made observations, inferences, and hypotheses based on what they thought was in the mystery box. I am sorry to say that I wouldn't tell them what was actually inside. It was more important that they demonstrated such skillful observations. It didn't matter if they were right or wrong.
Later in the week students reviewed the steps of the Scientific Method. You can watch the video at home or even sing along with the karaoke song http://studyjams.scholastic.com/studyjams/jams/science/scientific-inquiry/scientific-methods.htm
