Science
“Science is magic that works.” –Kurt Vonnegut
Science is the study of the natural world and all of its laws which includes biology, physics and chemistry. The most important aspect of the study of science is that the use of facts, concepts, controls, and tests are used to prove or disprove scientific theories with evidence. Over time, these scientific theories may be elaborated, further studied, or connected to new or different ideas. Science is always changing, but it stays factual and evidence-based no matter what. |
Science in the Classroom
Science is often viewed as a complex subject requiring years and years of experience. The truth is that science is all around us constantly. Science includes the study of life sciences, physical sciences, space sciences and more. Most curriculums, whether they are in STEM schools or not, include science lessons to some degree. Often, teachers are unable to spend a large amount of instruction time focusing on science due to the high demand of math and literacy instruction. Most teachers, however, are able to build science lesson plans into their overall curriculum.
It is critical to provide fact-based, evidence supported information when delivering a science lesson. How you deliver the lesson is completely up to you. Whether you create a lesson plan about the solar system by creating a model, or having children dress up as planets and orbit around the teacher as the sun, it is a science lesson that will teach your students about one of the many important realms of science.
