Letter 'n' in the word 'Can' is not n but it is inverted u. Check the actual n which is
used in the word "Find".
The numbers in this series are the count of letters of each word in a sequence of the heading
of this puzzle. e.g. Can = 3, you = 3, Tell = 4 and so on.

OBSERVING
OBSERVING
Observing is the most basic
and fundamental of the
process skills
Observing uses the 5
senses (sense of sight,
smell, taste, touch and
hearing) to find out
information about an
object’s characteristics,
properties, similarities,
and other identification
features.
OBSERVING

QUALITATIVE QUANTITATIVE
identifying and naming the
properties of an object like observing through
its shape, size, color, texture, measurement
sound and smell.

WHY DO WE NEED TO OBSERVE?

To compile/gather as much
information as possible about
objects or phenomena.
HOW DO WE OBSERVE?
✓ Focus on the objects or phenomena to be
studied.
✓ Identify the characteristics
✓ Compare the objects or phenomena
✓ Identify changes and sequence of events
✓ Use appropriate apparatus for more
detailed observations

COMPARING
COMPARING
Comparing is using observable
properties in identifying
relationships and discovering
similarities and differences
between objects and phenomena.

CLASSIFYING
CLASSIFYING
Classifying is using
observations to group objects
or events according to
similarities and differences.
WHY DO WE NEED TO CLASSIFY?

✓ Too many information


✓ Items of information are
not organized
HOW DO WE CLASSIFY?
1. identify the general characteristics of the
items sort out items of the same
characteristics into their respective group.
2. identify other characteristic.
3. repeat step 1-3 until there is only one
characteristics of the items in each group.

PREDICTING
PREDICTING
Predicting is using past observations or
data along with other kinds of scientific
knowledge to forecast events or
