8. Introduction to New Material
The Scientific Revolution was a new way of thinking about the world.
It occurred between the early 1500s to the 1700s
Prior to this period, people believed in geocentric theorythe idea that the solar system revolved around the earth.
Afterwards, they believed in the heliocentric theorythe idea that the earth revolved around the sun.
9. Introduction to New Material
One of the most important achievements from the period is the scientific method.
The scientific method is a logical procedure for gathering and testing ideas.
1. You observe a problem
2. You form a hypothesis based on an assumption.
3. You experiment.
4. You analyze data to reach a new conclusion.
10. You have a list of scientists from the period.
Listen carefully as you are assigned a group and scientists.
After you have been assigned somebody, place a star (*) by their name.

Some statements are ridiculous, while some are legitimate questions.
Use factual evidence from our presentations to get started.
Guided Practice
30. Guided Practice
Fahrenheit would defeat Celsius in a battle to the death.
Agree
Disagree
I think that Fahrenheit would defeat Celsius in a battle to the death because his temperature system is used in the U.S. the best country in the world.
Celsius would definitely win the battle, because most countries in the world use his temperature system. To think that something is the best because it is used in the U.S. is just arrogant.
31. Get up with your group and walk around the room.
Agree with the statements, or disagree.
Dont be afraid to argue with your classmatesbut do it respectfully.
Independent Practice
