QUESTION 1
1. Specific aim 1: “Doing Science” states that: Learners should be able to
complete investigations, analyse problems and use practical processes
and skills in evaluating solutions. This means that learners should plan
and do simple investigations and solve problems that need some
practical ability. Attitudes and values underpin this ability. Respect for
living things is an example – learners should not damage plants; if they
examine animals, they should care for them and release them to the
place they found them. Practical investigations:
• Investigating different soil types – measuring how much water different
soils can hold (Grade 5 – term 4).
• Investigating different materials in an electric circuit to see if they are
conductors or insulators (Grade 6 – term 3) The scientific process is a way
of investigating things about the world. Scientists use this process to find
out about the world and to solve problems.
Part A:
Follow the steps below to identify and elaborate on them in the two
investigations above.
Step 1: Identify a problem and develop a question. What is it you want to
find out?
Step 2: Form a hypothesis. A hypothesis is your idea, answer or prediction
about what will happen and why.
Step 3: Design an activity or experiment. Do something that will help you
test your idea or prediction to see if you were right.
Step 4: Observe/note changes/reactions (e.g., through measuring), and
record your observations (e.g., onto a table). What were the results of your
activity or experiment? Write about what happened. 20
Step 5: Make inferences about the observations recorded in the tables,
graphs, drawings, and photographs. Make some conclusions. What did you
find out? Do your results support your hypothesis? What did you learn
