What is a Scientist?

In Mrs. Brown's class today. We have been talking about what we believe Scientists are. The First Graders at Chets Creek were invited to share their ideas about what Scientists are on a Google Doc. A google doc is a document that is online and shared by a group of people and all of the people that are sharing the document are able to add on to the document.

This is what Mrs. Brown's class added to the First Grade Google Doc

Mrs. Brown's Class

We think scientists are ...

* A scientist is a guy that learns stuff about like volcanoes and
tornadoes, and see what the tornado can do, and they take the
pictures and stuff.
* A scientist is somone who mixes up chemicals
* Scientists do experiments
* Scientists do projects, like they can do plastic volcanoes
* They do the things that they are supposed to and there has to
be tons of scientists all over the world.
* A Scientist is someone who looks at the earth, like astronauts
* Scientists like to dig for dinosaur bones


We can't wait to be scientists ourselves this school year! It will be great.

I really liked your list about what scientists do. It looks to me like scientists are brave and smart. Just like the boys and girls in Mrs. Brown's class!
