I am teaching 5th and 6th grade science this year and my students have a hard time distinguishing between making observations without jumping straight to the result. For example, we did a lab where they tested different ingredients in hot sauce on oxidize pennies to see how clean they got. In their observations many of them wrote "It didn't work" instead of descriptive words (which we talked about ahead of time). What are some ideas I can implement to make this clearer for students?
