Who do you agree with? Four students were having a discussion about how
scientists do their work. This is what they said: Antoine: “I think scientists just tryout different things until
something works”. Tamara: “I think there is a definite set of steps all
scientists follow called the scientific method.” Marcos: “I think scientists use different methods
depending on their question.” Avery: “I think scientists use different methods but they
all involve doing experiments.” Which student do you most agree with?

Science is Like a Puzzle We often wonder if scientists are “wrong”
because they can’t answer all the questions we might have to ask.
We know lots about the universe. But, we don’t know everything.
Does that mean that we can’t explain things based on what we do know now?

Science is Like a Puzzle
Just recently, the International Astronomical Union decided that Pluto was not a planet.
Does that mean that earlier astronomers were wrong?
What was the basis of the change?

Invention! Ruth Graves Wakefield invented chocolate chip cookies in 1930
when she ran the Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. At first Ruth did not mean to make chocolate chip cookies.. Ruth’s Inn was famous for her chocolate cookies. One day, they sold so well that she was out of chocolate dough. Then she thought to use broken-up bars of semi-sweet
chocolate! However, the chocolate did not melt and make the cookies
chocolate. They were just in place and sweetened the dough! The cookies were an ultimate success. At first her new cookie invention was called the “Toll House
Cookie.”
