Frequently asked questions
Activity 1.1: Let us think and write - Write about a similar problem that you tried to solve. - What steps did you take?
This is a reflective question where students describe a problem they encountered and the steps they took to solve it. For example, if a pen stopped writing, the student might say they first checked if the ink was finished, then if the ink had dried, and so on. The answer should include observation, questioning, guessing, testing, and analyzing results as steps.
Activity 1.2: Let us think and write - Describe a daily life situation where you think someone was following a scientific method.
Students should describe a real-life situation where someone used observation, questioning, guessing, testing, and analyzing to solve a problem. Examples include a bicycle repair person finding a flat tyre's cause, an electrician checking why a bulb is not working, or a cook figuring out why dal spilled. The answer should highlight the use of the scientific method steps.
Activity 1.3: Let us think and write - If you have to ask "Why?" about something, what would you ask about? - Try to write down how you would attempt to find an answer to your question.
Students should identify a question they are curious about, for example, 'Why does it rain?' or 'Why do leaves change color?' Then, they should describe how they would find the answer by observing, asking questions, guessing possible explanations, testing through experiments or further observations, and analyzing results.
What is the primary reason science is described as a 'big adventure'?
Because it involves asking questions, exploring the world, and understanding how things work
