If you would like to do a little science at home, here is an activity you can do to learn about the parts of an investigation! If you do it at home, I'd love to see pictures! This is not a mandatory assignment :) Please let me know if you need any materials or a printed copy of the file to do this investigation! Adapted from an activity found on http://science-class.net
