Part of Lesson Plan: Scientific Method -- Matt Patton

Activity Overview / Details

Students will participate in an anchoring activity centered around the scientific method. The anchoring activity centers around a story set to the numbers on a clock moving from 12:00 o’clock to 6:00 o’clock. Each position on the clock incorporates a story and characters that symbolize the steps of the scientific method. Included in the story are motion movements to help anchor the concepts.
The characters of the story and the motion movements help the students remember the parts of the scientific method. The numbers on the clock give the students a point of reference and tool to remember the order of the steps.
A scrip of the Scientific Method anchoring activity is attached.
