• SC.4.N.1.2-Compare the observations made by different groups using multiple tools and seek reasons to explain the differences across groups.
• SC.4.N.1.5-Compare the methods and results of investigations done by other classmates.
• SC.4.N.1.6-Keep records that describe observations made, carefully distinguishing actual observations from ideas and inferences about the observations.
