Scientific Method


SCIENTIFIC METHOD

Hello everyone. I am sorry that I did not do my blogger on time.
The first thing we did in class was watch a video about the SCIENTIFIC METHOD. The video was from Brain Pop. Then we took the quiz and the quiz was about the SCIENTIFIC METHOD. We got 8 out of 10 . Now I want to explain more a bout the meaning of the SCIENTIFIC METHOD. The SCIENTIFIC METHOD is a way to ask and answer questions by making observations and doing experiments.


The second activity we did in class was about our shoes. We got a worksheet with some questions. The questions were like what is your feeling about your shoe, the color, the mass and shape and some more questions about our shoes. We had to finish the rest of the questions at home but some students did most of the questions in class.

For homework we had to : finish the shoe lab and not do the last quastion.

  1. Hey Ghazaleh! I liked your scribe post very much. First of all, I found your picture helpful and I liked the fact that you gave the definition of the scientific method. I also think it was great that you put links to the movies you watched during class! One thing you can improve on is the choice of colors. They were a bit bright. Also, some of your spelling was off and sometimes you forgot to capitalize the words at the beginning of your sentances.You could also work on sentance structure because some of your sentances didnt make sense. Overall, great scribe post! Fabi

  2. Hello Ghazaleh,

    I think your blog post is interesting and good job on using the colors to differantiate the paragraphs! I just have a few suggestions. First of all, be careful on your grammar, because even though the words you use are spelled correctly, you arrange them in a bad way, "the first thing we did in it was we saw the the video about SCIENTIFIC METHOD," , this should be written like this: " The first thing we did during class was seeing the video about the SCIENTIFIC METHOD.". The last suggestion would be to explain just a little bit better about the scientific method, but the picture definetly helps!

  3. Hey Ghazaleh!
    I think you made a good blogpost because the title was good and your information made sense. For me the scientific method was forgotten but because of your blogpost I think I now understand it. Your use of graphics were good because they were explanatory. Your use of colors was very nice and made the scribe look attractive. One thing you could have improved was your grammar. Overall you did very well.

  4. Hi Ghazaleh, this is Alix. Some things that could be different was definitely the links. "Youtube", "Brainpop", and "Sciencebody" don't actually help us. We still have to search the entire web page to find what we need. You could have also explained what the Scientific Method was more clearly.

  5. Great Job Ghazaleh! I like your picture very much it helped me understand your topic better. You also used diffrent colors for diffrent paragraphs! However you do have some minor grammer mistakes. And Maybe you would like to add some more pictures as they make your topics less boring and more understandable! great job keep up the good work!

  6. Hi Ghazaleh, first of all i must say it was a fairly good post, and good organization. However you could change some of the fonts so it wouldn't be too colorful (too much color makes it quite distracting), as well as improve the sentence structure so it makes sense (for example you wrote "Now I want to explain more what is meaning of the SCIENTIFIC METHOD" which is missing an article before meaning, and as such I think using spell check would provide a great help for you. The image is a very good picture, yet there is only one, and as such I would suggest you add a few more. Also it would be helpful if you wrote a bit more about the "shoe" project, so that people who weren't in your class could learn about it. The explanation over the scientific method is fairly accurate, however it would have been helpful to go into detail and state that when the original hypothesis is wrong you go back to constructing the hypothesis and stat over from that step. Lastly the links are good, but they are for the general website and not for the exact video or article of that particular subject (for example you wrote "www.youtube.com" and not the link for a particular video that is related to science). Overall I believe this post was decent but could have seen many more improvements that could have been done in a matter of minutes of double checking your work. Next time, proof your work and try to put a bit more effort into this.

  7. Hi Ghazaleh,

    I liked your scribe post a lot the colors of your font are great and the picture is very helpful for many of our Science assignments. I also liked it that you wrote the meaning of ‘scientific method’. For the next time I would recommend you to use spell check because you have a couple of mistakes.

    Good Job!

  8. Hi Ghazaleh,
    This post was very hard to read due to distracting colors and occasional incorrect grammar. However I think that some of the information was good and covered our class.

  9. Hi Ghazaleh!
    The scribe post that you did was good. I really enjoyed the picture because I was able to recall my knowledge on the scientific method. I'm glad that I was able to remember some science that I learned last year! You also need to watch out for your spelling because I can spot several mistakes throughout your scribe post. For example don not would be do not or don't. Always check for your punctuations. You didn't capitalize beginning of sentences and didn't add periods at the end. Another recommendation for you is that you should first write your scribe post on Microsoft Word and do spell check. This will help reduce the amount of spelling errors. If you just check your grammar and spelling, I think your scribe post would be nice!

  10. Hi Ghazaleh I liked your use of colors and the size of your font. Maybe next time you could capitilize your sentences and look out for your grammar. I think you could've maybe explained the picture, maybe said what it represents. I like your defintion of the scientific method but you could've maybe explained it a little more. All in all nice post.

  11. Hi Ghazaleh,
    I really liked the colors, the way you explained the Scientific Method and how you reminded us of our homework. Next time be more carfull with your grammar.

  12. Ghazaleh - I like your use of color and the opening diagram you have used for the Scientific Method. I think you should have had someone proof your work though, as there are many grammatical and spelling errors throughout this post. Plus, I think you could have gone into more depth about the Shoe Observation worksheet we did and why we did it for this class. I am glad you tried to put in hyperlinks to aid the readers, but they are to very general sites and do not give anything related to what we were doing during class. You should have your readers link to a specific website about the Scientific Method or a specific youtube video that could help your readers with the Scientific Method. This is a good first post, but next time, please have someone proof your work. ~Ms. D.

  13. Hello Ghazaleh! I liked your post. It was colorful and I liked the picture of the scientific method. But you could work more on your English Grammar and your scientific vocabulary. You could also include more details about the "Brain pop" and the quiz. In what worksheet have you done your shoe observations? Also, you could explain the picture (of the scientific method), what it means.
    Still, it's a very good post.
