Critical Thinking and Problem Solving-Students construct theirown scientific understanding and develop their scientific process skills by asking scientific questions, designing and conducting investigations, constructing explanations from their observations, and discussing their explanations with others.

Communication- Students prepare and interpret a variety of methods for demonstrating understanding and explaining the results of investigations including charts and graphs, diagrams and illustrations, photographic images, and informational and procedural text.

Collaboration- Students work collaboratively with others, both in small and large groups, in their science classroom.

Initiative and self-direction- Students are able to design an investigation based on a question they have generated from their own curiosity.
