The document discusses six key science process skills: observing, classifying, measuring, communicating, inferring, and predicting. Each skill is defined and an example is provided to illustrate how it can be applied. Observing involves using the senses to make observations. Classifying involves grouping objects by attributes. Measuring finds properties like size, weight or speed. Communicating shares experiences through graphs, diagrams or words. Inferring links observations to prior knowledge. Predicting makes educated guesses based on observations and inferences.

Observing The act of observing something The learner will
Observations are made by mix primary using the 5 senses. colors to create more colors.
Classifying To put people or things into The learner will

Communicating share our experiences. This create a line can be done with graphs, graph showing diagrams, maps, and spoken the relationship word. between speed and the mass of a marble.
Inferring An inference is an explanation The learner will
