Today we learned that scientists use tools to make observations. Making an observation means that you are looking closely at something. We learned how to use a hand lens to make observations of objects in our classroom. One student discovered that when you look at something with a hand lens far away, the object is upside down. When you look at the same object close up, it isn't. What a great observation! In math we reviewed how to compare numbers and how to order numbers. We learned that we can use the number line as a tool to help us with both concepts.
Homework Read!! Use your hand lens to observe some items in your home. Observe some items that are outside. What did you notice?
