Sept. 11.2008
We were introduced to the Ready, Set, Science text. We were given a lot of information on the reason science is so important. It can be the foundation for language, logic, and problem solving skills. Science is also extremely important to help us as citizens understand what is going on in our community and world. We also learned about the new vision of science education. We as teachers need to look at our students and realize they could be future scientist. We need to guide them through science instruction and help them understand all of the different strands of science. By helping our students realize science is not just mixing chemicals in a lab, but also about things such as plants, animals, and the human body, we may help them realize they want to be doctors or veterinarians. Science has endless possibilities and when teaching young children, we need to help them see all the things science can offer.
