What science skills did you use during the SMASH Day activity? How do these science skills help us be better scientists?

We used the skills from Scientific Method.We predicted what will happen when we put the three rings on top of the tower we made from paper. Purpose is an important part of having a good experiment (If you have a good experiment with good Purpose, it means you are a good scientist!), it tells you what to think of, so Purpose is always the first step. Also, Prediction is an important part of experiment. Every kind of experiment needs a prediction, you may not know that you are thinking about Prediction, but you actually are. To be a good scientist, you would need a good Prediction and a good Purpose.
