We are 2nd grade scientists! We are learning about how to be a scientist, and one of the main things that we have discovered is that scientists ask a LOT of questions and they conduct experiments to try to find the answers to those questions. Earlier this week we conducted an investigation activity with our friend Freddy the Worm. See Freddy doesn't know how to swim. And his life preserver was stuck underneath the cup! Our scientist friends were tasked with figuring out how to get his life preserver out from under the cup and onto Freddy WITHOUT touching anything with their hands. They each had a paperclip that they could use to touch / move things.
They each had a paperclip that they could use to touch / move things. Most groups were able to successfully put Freddy's life preserver one and safe his life. What a great bunch of problem solving scientist we have in our class!
