18 IN Activity 1. How do scientists use ISNs? (Interactive Science Notebooks) Team chat and write down your answer

19 SCIENTIST S NOTEBOOKS The following slides show real notebooks from scientists who work at Battelle Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Richland, Washington. Watch carefully as important parts to a scientist s notebook are shared.

20 Something wrong with this Computational Chemist

21 will have all of these checked for instability and optimize Computational Chemist

22 Reference graphs and tables pasted into notebook Materials Scientist

23 Materials Scientist Sample sketch

24 Materials Scientist Results (crossed out)

25 ECOLOGIST Describing the problem the purpose of the study

26 ECOLOGIST Identifying the site including selection criteria

27 ECOLOGIST Specifications regarding the Elk Enclosures

28 THINKING ABOUT YOUR SCIENCE NOTEBOOK What are some of the things you saw happening in the scientists notebooks? OUT Activity List 6 things that you observed form the scientists ISNs

29 THINKING ABOUT NOTEBOOKS Share out with your table group

30 REFLECT Which of those things do you think you could incorporate in YOUR notebook?

31 SKETCH YOUR OBJECT Model first describing what you are doing Outside shape Split object into parts

32 Move from Sketch to Scientific Illustration Label the parts Add color and dimension Drawing now is detailed, accurate, and labeled

33 OBSERVATIONS ORGANIZER Writing Frame Think of properties you can see such as size, shape, color, lines, texture, pattern, behavior I observed Think of the other senses of smell, sound, touch, and perhaps taste! Connect it with something that you already know. I noticed It reminds me of Add more detail as needed. This is so because Be curious and ask questions you could investigate. I am curious about It surprised me that I wonder what would happen if This organizer or writing frame is one part of a comprehensive, research-based approach to teaching students how to think, talk and write like scientists.

34 Now add a new object

35 THE BOX & T-CHART Similarities Object #1 Object #2 Differences

36 THE BOX & T-CHART Similarities Object #1 Object #2 Differences This organizer or writing frame is one part of a comprehensive, research-based approach to teaching students how to think, talk and write like scientists. (See Writing in Science by Betsy Rupp Fulwiler, 2007, Portsmouth, NH: Heinemann.)

37 COMPARE AND CONTRAST Writing Frame Start with how things are the same or similar. The and the are the same because they both. Add more details as needed. In addition, they both. Explain how they are different. You can compare the same property or characteristic in the same sentence. Use and, but, or whereas to set up the contrast. Add more detail as needed. They are different because the, but the does not. Also, the, whereas the does not. This organizer or writing frame is one part of a comprehensive, research-based approach to teaching students how to think, talk and write like scientists.

38 Update Your Table of Contents Turn back to your Table of Contents. Add Observations and Sketches with the corresponding date and page numbers. Now that you have had a basic experience in using your science notebook you are ready to record your experiences while at work in your science class!

39 THEN Don t forget to let your notebook reflect your
