Big Ideas
- Scientific inquiry begins with asking meaningful questions and identifying problems based on observations or information.
- Gathering and interpreting information from various sources is essential to formulating scientific questions and defining problems.
Essential Questions
- How do scientists generate questions from their observations or research?
