Exploring the Scientific Method through Tracking: Backyard Clue Cards®

This challenging game presents a set of ten 6" x 9" tracking cards that engage students in the scientific method. Students learn to observe, form hypotheses, analyze data, predict, refine hypotheses, and develop conclusions. Cards are laid out one at a time, each card presenting a connected but new sequence of tracks that provide data for speculation. Animals presented in the Backyard Clue Card® set include house cat, squirrel, dove, heron, towhee, chipmunk, lizard, dog, skunk, opossum, raccoon, frog, rabbit, ant, and mouse. Complete directions plus specific age-appropriate questions are provided. All cards are printed locally on recycled paper. Recommended for ages 8 to adult.
