What is Science? by Mark Giraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science Made by Mr. G's super amazing Grade 4/5 students before and after watching https://www.generationgenius.com/?share=708EF ! en-us 2020-09-22 04:41:12 UTC 2020-09-28 23:24:15 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4e1.png Prewatch Question 1 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766886717 In your own words, what do you think science is?

Science is the process of learning about the natural world through observation and experimentation.]]> 2020-09-22 04:43:24 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766886717 Prewatch Question 2 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766887112 How do you think scientists do science?

Through doing tests and experiments, observing things in nature, trying out stuff to see how it works, and measuring things!]]> 2020-09-22 04:43:37 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766887112 Prewatch Question 3 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766887306 When you look around you, what do you see that relates to science?

Some examples are electricity in the lights, computers, any live animals and plants in the room, the weather outside the window, etc!]]> 2020-09-22 04:43:44 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766887306 Prewatch Question 4 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766887641 What kinds of science can you name?

Some examples are (there's a lot of them): physical science (consisting of many fields in physics and chemistry); different areas of earth science and astronomy; life science (consisting of biology, ecology, microbiology, zoology, botany and many others); social science (such as geography, anthropology); and applied science (healthcare, engineering, computer science, genetics), and so on. There are also many interdisciplinary fields such as: biomedical engineering, computational linguistics, and environmental science, to name a few.

Science is the process of learning about the natural world through observation and experimentation. Scientists use evidence, along with active thinking, to explain what is happening in the natural world.]]> 2020-09-22 04:46:33 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766892501 Post Watch Question 2 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766894289 What are some benefits of science that we enjoy today?

In the video, Izzy mentions electricity, modern agriculture and advances in medicine such as antibiotics. There are countless more! Diseases that were once harmful or deadly (polio, small pox, chicken pox) are now nearly extinct thanks to science!]]> 2020-09-22 04:47:31 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766894289 Post Watch Question 3 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766894875 How can you tell if something is science or not science?

Something is science if there is evidence that supports the claims that people make, and if the evidence is collected using recognized scientific methods such as the eight “science and engineering practices.” If claims do not have evidence to support them, it is not science.]]> 2020-09-22 04:47:51 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766894875 Post Watch Question 4 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766897458 Do scientific answers ever change?

Yes. Scientific answers change when new evidence is discovered that disproves what we thought was fact. For example, people believed that the earth was flat, but as scientific equipment improved, more accurate observations were made, and it became evident that the earth is spherical, or shaped like a ball.]]> 2020-09-22 04:49:21 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/766897458 NS Postwatch Responses markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/science/wish/786165388 What is science
