Science Detective Activity

Science Detective Challenge

Help students discover why science matters.

Students investigate real-world objects and decide whether science was involved in creating them.

Along the way they discover connections between biology, chemistry, engineering, Earth science, physics, technology, and everyday life.

Rather than memorizing vocabulary, students become detectives who collect evidence, defend claims, and explain their thinking.

This printable lesson includes teacher directions, discussion prompts, investigation pages, reflection activities, and an evidence-based writing assignment.

Perfect for:

• Back to School
• STEM
• Science Class
• Homeschool
