Science is Fun!

IB  MYP is full of unexpected surprises. It all started off with the learning of Scientific Methods. Scientific method is a very interesting way to make a hypothesis out of very keen observations in life. First, you need to question yourself about what you would like to know about your observation. From that question, you convert it into a hypothesis. The next step is the best one which is experimenting. I really like the way I learnt that, after you are done with experimenting, you get to collect and organize the data and draw a graph showing all the information we have gathered. Finally, you get to analyze relationships between or within data, draw conclusions and then verify the results. Verifying results is just stating whether and how your hypothesis is true. Wow! What a day it was! But, that was not all. As part of the scientific method class we also got the opportunity to go to the chemistry lab. Not only did we learn about the many types of instruments used in the lab but we also performed an experiment. We put sodium in water and to everyone’s surprise the sodium actually caught fire, that too in water. I never thought that seventh grade would be so much fun!
