Abstract

In this module, students will use cellophane “fortune telling” fish to walk through the scientific method. The students learn and practice the scientific method by proposing, testing and observing what happens with their "fish". Students will test various hypotheses to determine as to why the fish curl, roll up, or do nothing in their palm or on other surfaces.
