  • What has been you experience learning about and doing science?  Describe a positive experience and why it was positive.  Describe a negative experience and why it was negative.
  I believe science is everything we see, hear, and do. Science is the study of the physical and natural world. Science has many branches such as geology, astronomy, physics, biology, chemistry, and more. The goal of science is to help us understand the world we live in. Science is conducted through research, experiments, and observations.
  My experience with learning and doing science has been fun. One positive experience I have had with science was connecting circuits to make different light bulbs work. This was a positive experience for me because I understood the activity and how the wires worked to make the bulbs light up. However, when I started attending high school science was a little difficult for me. In biology I had a negative experience when we had to dissect frogs and take out certain parts. It was negative for me because I love animals and I found it disturbing to poke at dead animals. My biology teacher gave me a bad grade because I refused to participate and a week later she brought in a dead cat sliced down the middle with all its insides showing. Thankfully that was the only negative experience I have had with science.
