The process of inquiry, or scientific method as you may have called it when you were in school, is the backbone of science in the real world, as well as in Seabury’s science program. In all classes, from prekindergarten where students have studied everything from plants to planets, to middle school where they have studied chemistry and microbiology, students at Seabury don’t just learn about science. They DO science. They research background information. They learn to ask research questions. They develop hypotheses. They experiment and control variables. They make careful observations and control variables. They draw conclusions and share them with others.
