Science Processes Included in the Teacher's Handbook of Middle School Science Experiments

Abstract

The aim of this research is to uncover the science processes included in the teacher’s guide to scientific experiments for science books for grades (first-second) for the intermediate stage, The research sample included all the scientific experiments contained in the teacher’s guide for scientific experiments for the intermediate stage, The researcher used the descriptive and analytical method, and designed an analysis tool, The content of science operations, and verified its validity and consistency, and after using percentages and ranks for statistical treatment, the research reached the following results: The number of practical experiments varies from one class to another in the intermediate stage, where the highest percentage appears in the teacher's guide for scientific experiments for the second grade, with (60) experiments and (57%), and the lowest is the teacher's guide for scientific experiments for the first grade by (46) experiments and by (43%) The most frequent basic science process is the observation process, while the most integrative science process is the experimentation process, and the scientific experiments did not deal with the processes of prediction and control of variables.
