Although it is not obvious to the casual observer, rocks absorb water. You can ask your students to observe rocks all day long and they will not be able to tell if the rocks they are observing are absorbing water. However, there is an investigation which allows students to discover that rocks absorb water and how much water specific rocks absorb.

There is a lot of information known about planet earth; however, every day new and astonishing little known facts are discovered. These facts are the result of research by scientists who spend their time investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating prior knowledge into theories and facts that explain how the earth works. The study of earth and its related sciences is called earth science.

Integrating the science process skills within your teaching does not require drastic changes. It simply involves making the process of science more explicit in lessons, investigations, and activities you are already using in your curriculum. The science process skills are the methods used for helping our students understand how we know what we know about the world in which they live. This often means going beyond a science textbook and supplementing the core-content within textbooks. It also means using your course content as a means for exposing students to the real process of science.
