Investigating Questions - Grade 3

The third graders opened up their minds after discussing "What does a scientist look like?" Many of the original drawings shows male scientists with crazy hair and wearing lab coats.  After exploring a variety of science careers such as a Computer Graphics Engineer and an Orthotist, the third graders have a much broader outlook.
"A scientist can be anybody because even we are scientists who make observations", said one third grader.  They finished up the week distinguishing qualitative observations vs. quantitative observations.
