week 3 october 3

What science ideas did you learn??

In science we have been learning about the spread of disease. This week we have been doing this activity. In this activity we have been helping this school. We are trying to figure out why kids have been getting sick, and what they have.
We had also did an experiment on simulation and learned about macroscopic, microscopic, and sub-microscopic. We had also learned about dirty and clean surfaces and how you can experiment and see what's dirty and what's not.


How did you learn these ideas?

We learned these ideas by discussing and doing experiments. The experiment we did on the simulation, was for homework we went on this website and it would show us simulations.A simulation is an imitation or enactment, as of something anticipated or in testing. A simulation can show toy the object up close.


Why is it important to know this idea (What real world application is there)?

It is important to know these ideas because we could use them in real world situations. Like for example in the future someone can ask you about the spread of disease, and you would know the answer for that.
