Help your students build real understanding of sources for credibility and bias through ninety questions that move from basic recognition to genuine reasoning about how science works.
Sample questions include "How can you verify the accuracy of information you find online?", "What is the first step in evaluating a source for credibility?", and "Which is an example of a primary source?"
Because the three worksheets share the same content in three different formats, you can spread them across the week: one for diagnosis, one for practice, and one for assessment, without repeating a single question.
This set is part of a standards aligned science unit. The unit also covers Turning Observations into Testable, a Hypothesis with Clear Variables, Planning a Fair Test with Controls, Metric Measurement Skills for Reliable, Data Collection Methods for Precision, and Organizing Data to Reveal Patterns, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for Grade 6 science classes, and for review at any point in the school year. This set is aligned to Virginia SOL standard 6.1.f.2.
