Had an interesting session with the kids on the fundamentals of Science. I constructed a black box with some candies inside. They had to guess what's in the box without opening it. Some were indifferent, some showed enthusiasm and all had different methods.
What we think of as high school science is not Science. Science isn't listing down a set of facts. Knowing that Jupiter is the largest planet of the Solar System or that the human heart has four chambers isn't Science.
Science is the process of discovering the world around us through the use of a set of rules and procedure. So now you know, Science is a verb.
