Real-Life Scientists
As you saw from our last post, there were many ideas as to what we thought a scientist is.
We soon learnt that not all scientists are... always wearing a lab coat, are boys or men, have crazy, wild hair, are old, work in a lab...
Check out these cool videos of some real life scientists at work! Are these what you thought a scientist was?
What Does A Scientist Look Like?
In science last week, our teacher got us to draw some illustrations of what we thought a scientist looked like and include some of the tools and things we thought that they might use. Our teacher was looking to see what we did and didn't know about scientists. He was also looking at some ideas we had that might be wrong about scientists.
Here are some examples of some illustrations across the school of what we thought a scientist might look like. Remember, these are what we thought a scientist would look like…
Next week we are going to try and explain what a scientist really is by looking at some real life scientists. We will be looking at the way a scientist thinks and what they actually do.
