On your paper, write down the four things you should do if you want to succeed this year. We went over this yesterday.
Get out your homework so we can review it.
1. Come to school2. Give your best effort3. Follow the rules and procedures4. Ask questions
1. Group Scientific Method Activity2. Observation Vs. Inference3. Observation & Inference Activity4. What is bias?
Observation- is an activity of humans, consisting of receiving knowledge of the outside world through the senses, or the recording of data using scientific instruments.
Inference- draws a conclusion or offers an explanation based on observations

II. Observation vs. Inference

III. What is bias?Bias is a state of mind when you have already
decided on the issue without even knowing the full facts. You may call it prejudice or being partial.
Example: I think the Cleveland Indians are the best team in Major League Baseball. They will win the World Series this year.
1. Tonight when you go home make 5 observations about your house, family, yard, or your neighbors.
2. After you have made your 5 observations, use those observations to make 5 inferences.
3. Use the same paper that you took notes on today.
