(1) plan and implement descriptive investigations,
including asking and answering questions, making inferences, and selecting and
using equipment or technology needed, to solve a specific problem in the
natural world;
(A) collect and record data by observing and measuring
using the metric system and recognize differences between observed and measured
data;
(B) construct maps, graphic organizers, simple tables,
charts, and bar graphs using tools and current technology to organize, examine,
and evaluate measured data;
(C) analyze and interpret patterns in data to construct
reasonable explanations based on evidence from investigations;
(D) demonstrate that repeated investigations may
increase the reliability of results; and
(E) communicate valid conclusions supported by data in
writing, by drawing pictures, and through verbal discussion.
