3. Reminders… You should have your science notebooks today BY FRIDAY— All forms should be turned in You will have a quiz on classroom procedures, observations, and the scientific method EVERY DAY YOU SHOULD BE EXEMPLIFYING THE RAVEN WAY

4. Agenda for the day Review Warm-Up (Safety) Complete Classroom Posters (Blocks 1, 4, 5) Set up Science Notebooks Qualitative and Quantitative Observations Sewer Fleas Observation Practice Collaboration Review Procedures as needed

21. QUALITATIVE OBSERVATIONS Qualitative Observations are when you use your senses (sight, taste, smell, feeling and hearing) to note characteristics QUALITATIVE  QUALITY EXAMPLES: odor, color, state of matter

22. QUANTITATIVE OBSERVATIONS Quantitative Observations are characteristics than can be measured QUANTITATIVE  QUANTITY (or amount) Examples: density, mass, boiling point, melting point, length

23. COLLABORATIVE ACTIVITIES We are going to practice collaboration
