Science
Is a way of learning about the natural world by gathering information (observations) and logical reasoning

Leads to a body of knowledge

Scientists use the skills of observing, inferring, and predicting to learn more about the natural world
![Page 5: Chapter 1.1 Notes How do Scientists think?. Science Is a way of learning about the natural world by gathering information (observations) and logical reasoning.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649e955503460f94b99322/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
If, on a sunny afternoon, you are at Northside pool and you observe a massive line of large, dark clouds quickly advancing on your area what prediction might you make?

Observing◦The use of one or more senses to gather information. Sight, Hearing, Touching, Taste, and Smell

◦Qualitative Descriptions that don’t involve numbers or measurements
(eg) Ball is round, milk is sour, honey tastes sweet.

◦Quantitative Description involves measurements

Inference When you explain your
observations
![Page 10: Chapter 1.1 Notes How do Scientists think?. Science Is a way of learning about the natural world by gathering information (observations) and logical reasoning.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649e955503460f94b99322/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
◦Are based on reasoning you already know. (eg) Your teacher gives a lot of pop quizzes, he walks into the room carrying a stack of paper, you may infer that there is a quiz.

◦Inferences are not always correct (eg) If you skipped breakfast on a day you aced a math quiz, would a reasonable inference be that skipping breakfast leads to great math grades?

(eg) If you have a cold and you take vitamin C, you recover quickly from a cold, what inference could you make?

Predicting◦Making a forecast of what will
happen in the future based of previous experience or evidence.
![Page 14: Chapter 1.1 Notes How do Scientists think?. Science Is a way of learning about the natural world by gathering information (observations) and logical reasoning.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649e955503460f94b99322/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
(eg) Saying your team is going to win is a prediction if it is based on the records of the 2 teams. It is a guess if it is not based on any data.

The study of matter and energy
◦Physical science is the study of matter, energy, and the changes it undergoes.
![Page 16: Chapter 1.1 Notes How do Scientists think?. Science Is a way of learning about the natural world by gathering information (observations) and logical reasoning.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649e955503460f94b99322/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Chemistry is the study of the properties of matter and how matter changes.
![Page 17: Chapter 1.1 Notes How do Scientists think?. Science Is a way of learning about the natural world by gathering information (observations) and logical reasoning.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649e955503460f94b99322/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Physics is the study of matter and energy and how they interact.

How do firefighters, photographers, and piano turners need physical science to do their jobs?
