Introduction
Observation is paying close attention to something to get information. For example, by observing a bird, we can learn about its wings and learn how it flies.
In this lesson, students learn to make observations using our five senses: seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, and sometimes tasting. It is the first step of the scientific method.
