STUDENT MANUAL SIXTH GRADE SCIENCE LESSON 1

Lesson 1 What is Science? When you think of science, what comes to your mind? Is it doing experiments, watching the night sky, learning the life cycle of a frog? In fact, all of these things can be considered science. Science makes up everything we do and we are. Science is a way of learning what goes on around you. Learning the best temperature to keep a fish tank at and the basics behind throwing a curve ball both require thinking like a scientist.

Science can be broken into three different branches.

Earth science is the study of earth’s features such as rocks, water, weather, and space.

Life science is the study of living things including both plants and animals. Life science is sometimes referred to as biology.

Physical science is the study of motion, energy, sound, light, electricity, magnetism, and the tiny particles that make up everything around you. Physical science includes areas such as chemistry and physics.

The three branches of science create the world around us, as we know it. Science is constantly changing and becoming more advanced in all of its fields.

Lesson 2 Scientific Discoveries

Science is always changing. Every year there are new contributions in every branch of science. This can include anything from finding a cure to a disease, to discovering a new star, to constructing a new theory about how humans have evolved over time. Your job is to create a timeline of the past 100 years in regards to contributions in science. Your timeline can be vertical or horizontal. The contribution can be in any of the three branches of science we have discussed. You will need to find a contribution for every decade. For example, you will need to find a contribution in science from the years 1900-1910. The next contribution would be from the years 1911-1920 and so on. You may use resource books, encyclopedias, or the Internet. Use the rubric below to help you create your timeline. SAMPLE

Lesson 3 Scientific Inquiry

We have already learned that science is all around us. The way we study the world is a process called scientific inquiry. You use scientific inquiry everyday and probably don’t even know you are using it.

The first step in scientific inquiry is to pose a question. The question is what you want to learn more about or that is unexplained.

The second step in scientific inquiry is to develop a hypothesis. A hypothesis is an educated guess of what you think will happen during your experiment. Your hypothesis can’t be wrong as long as you are making a logical guess. Your hypothesis is what you will be testing.

The third step in scientific inquiry is designing an experiment. The experiment is actually testing what you wrote in your hypothesis. The experiment includes the materials you use and the procedure you will be following.

TEACHER MANUAL SIXTH GRADE SCIENCE LESSON 3

The fourth step in scientific inquiry is recording your results. Results are the record ofwhat happened while conducting your experiment. Results are the evidence collectedincluding facts and data. Graphs are usually included in the results section.

The fifth and final step of scientific inquiry is drawing a conclusion. A conclusion should answer several questions. Was my hypothesis correct? Why or why not? How would I change the experiment if I did it again? Was there a human error that could have changed the outcome of my experiment?
