Making Observations and Inferences in Science

Today, student practiced making observations and inferences.  Observations can be made through using your five senses.  Making an inference happens when you explain an idea based on what you observed.  Today, students went made observations about items in ten "mystery bags."  They recorded observations in their journal like hard, round, smells like fruit, etc. Based on their observations, they tried to infer what object was the in bag. Check out some pictures of today's lab:
