In your science notebook, answer these questions:
How did your story differ from the true story?
Did you use only FACTS in your story or did you make some assumptions?Slide5
Do Now:
Use a yellow highlighter to go back through your paragraph. Highlight the FACTS that you used in your paragraph.

What is the difference between and observation and an inference
?Were you making observations in the lab just now, inferences, or both?Slide9
Observation
Describing something using your five senses.
Another word for a fact.
You can not dispute an observation. It is true.Examples:The sky is blue.
It is sunny out.
The item in container 3 weighed 5 grams.Slide10
Inference
A judgment using prior knowledge that explains an observation.
Could be called an opinion.
Not always true!Examples:I saw Jake yawn; therefore, he is tired
It is sunny, so it must be hot outside.
Object 3 rolled, so it must be a bouncy ball.Slide11
Do Now:
Go back to the paragraph you wrote about the airplane. Look at what you thought were “facts.”
A
re those really facts, or are they inferences?Make a T-Chart in your notes and record your observations and inferences from your story!
