Be a Scientist!
Be a Scientist!
The best way to learn about science is to act like a scientist! Stay curious. Notice the things around you.
Keep a journal of what you see and wonder about. Use any notebook you've got and write about your observations. Be sure to add pictures and diagrams! You could journal about the plants and animals around you, the stars and moon, the weather, engineering ideas, questions you have, and so much more! (Click here to print Evening Star Maps.)
