The Keys to Unlocking Science for Kids

I have recently read the article Keys to Teaching the Nature of Science. In this article They discuss the nature of science (NOS) and how to use it in the classroom. They explain that a big part of science is interacting with one another, scientist work with one another to come up with answers and to solve problems.  Science is highly influenced by culture, society and history, so working with other people on science experiments will give more then one opinion and outlook on something.


Another thing that the article talks about is how all the types of sciences astronomy, physical, earth etc. are all different; all the sciences make a hypothesis, do an experiment to test the hypothesis. draw a conclusion. the article says that there is no universal rules for science however each science does each of the scientific method steps differently. This is what we need to teach our students. 

I chose this article because it seemed to have good insight on how to effectively incorporate science into the classroom.  
here is the article if you would like to read it!
