Don't forget the Science Time for 3rd grade on WEDNESDAY. You can click on this link to join the Zoom session at any time from 3:00 to 4:00 and ask questions about this week's Science news or your assignments.
For the last weeks of Science, I am going to go back to the way we started the year - what is Science and how does a scientist work?
Scientists look deeper at the world and ask 2 main questions:
- How is something made (it's STRUCTURE)
- How does something work (it's FUNCTION)
I am going to challenge you to think about some common and ordinary things in a new way. Today we start with toothpaste! Something I hope you use every day but don't think about.
Please investigate toothpaste by creating a report and sending it to me that has:
- 3 different ways that toothpaste works, that is 3 different things that toothpaste does. Please answer in complete sentences! A good sentence would start "One thing that toothpaste does is ..." or "One function of toothpaste is ...".
- 3 different ways that toothpaste is made that helps it perform its functions. A good sentence would start is "One way that that toothpaste is made is..." or "One of the things in toothpaste that makes it work well is ....".
