Scientific Me

Everyone is a scientist in their own way! Even the toddler in the picture to the left. He is forever playing with his baby chemistry set, wanting to cook dinner with me, as well as many other things that involve the use of science or some sort of scientific knowledge.

 Whether people know it or not, some sort of science most likely intrigues them or fascinates them. Throughout school, exposure to science and different types of experiments is so important to young learners. There is not enough emphasis put on science in the classrooms these days.

Without this science education, students are missing out on so much of what is going on around them in the world. Some students find their career path at an elementary school age. Without the exposure to science, a good amount of students are missing out on that opportunity.

When I am a teacher, I plan to do my best to make lessons and activities include some sort of science, even if it is english or math based. I believe not only will these types of lessons make my students more interested, I also believe that it will make them into more well rounded adolescents and adults.

Linked here is the link to my Scientific Me essay. The essay talks about some of the positive Science experiences I had in my years of school.
