From School Library Journal
Grade 3-6 Sharing a common introduction that defines the six steps of the scientific method, these books provide clear definitions and kid-friendly explanations. What's Going to Happen? covers step two of the method. Topics include the definition of a hypothesis, why it is important to make one, how to find information that will help formulate it, and what happens when your hypothesis is incorrect. What's Going On? is about the fourth step. It explains how to make observations using all five senses (when appropriate) the importance of reporting data truthfully and in a timely, clear, and specific manner the importance of pictures and diagrams and different ways data can be represented (charts, computer software, photographs, journals, etc.). Each book includes two experiments. Photographs and illustrations representing a diverse population enhance the texts. There are few books for this age group that cover the scientific method, and these do a solid job of presenting the material. However, one must also buy What's the Problem?: How to Start Your Scientific Investigation What's the Plan?: Designing Your Experiment What Just Happened?: Reading Results and Making Inferences and What Do We Know Now?: Drawing Conclusions and Answering the Question in order to cover the entire method. Otherwise, these are good choices. Stephanie Farnlacher, Trace Crossings Elementary School, Hoover, AL
