Our first-day answers to:
What is Science about?
- From my point of view science is about creating new things and experimenting others.
- I think science is very large. It is really about everything earth, human, plants, animal and so on.
- It is about discovering new ways to solve problems that have been a headache, for instance how the human body works.
- Science is a wonderful way to search for answers. It is a method that we can use to discover things that no one has thought about. You can look around in your environment and start asking, “How can we live better? How to improve our health?”
- Science is about biology, a study of living and non-living things.
- Science is something that is created by someone.
- Trial and error, guessing to see what fits, remembering everything is different.
