Today's children are tomorrow's scientists and science users. They will rely even more than we do on science and technology - for jobs, communication, food, health care, energy, and care of the environment. Science learning begins at home, with you as your child's most important teacher. This guide suggests ways you can help your children learn about science at home and in your community. Science is a part of life - every day.
Science is a way of looking at the world.
Scientists ask questions and try to answer them. They experiment to see if their ideas make sense. So do children. Science skills are used in everyday life. When you observe, compare, sort, experiment, record or share information, you are practicing science skills.
