Inquiry Stage Three

As students start to analyze and interpret their data in Stage Three, they must learn to use and draw from the data recorded in their notebooks and generate initial findings based on evidence. They must write clear descriptions of their analyses, as well as initial explanations of their conclusions. Students also engage with oral language focused on the study of data in large and small groups and thoughtful presentations of ideas with careful explanations and rational arguments. Books may serve the purpose of filling in missing pieces of information and be sources for supporting or questioning tentative conclusions.
