The Scientific Method?
 Learning Science:
● Starts with a phenomenon
● Involves asking questions
● Experimenting & Tinkering
● Looking and analyzing
data
● Drawing pictures/models
● Arguing with evidence
● Working together
● Designing solutions
● Revising and try over &
over again!
Phenomena

Phenomena are events in science that can be observed.

A phenomenon lead us to wonder and ask questions.

Can you
think of
any other
examples?
 Cool and most surreal natural phenomena on Earth
Halos require just the right
formation of ice crystals in clouds
Volcanoes can produce lightning high above the surface of the Earth
to bend light from the sun into a
perfect ring
