For the past few weeks Mrs. Reinhardt and Mr. Bouchard have been working with the forth grade teachers and students on inquiry science. Using a NECAP science practice task the classes have been carefully walking through the stages of inquiry science. In their science notebooks they have been creating exemplary pieces to be used as a reference in the future. Students made predictions and backed them up with "because" statements, they created data tables, followed and modified test procedures, analyzed data and made conclusions based on the data. I was a fun experience for all involved and it set the stage for future inquiry science work.
