The final step of the scientific method is to communicate or share with others what we have learned. It is important for scientists to share the results of their experiments. They can write, create pictures, or speak to others. What is your favorite way to share your thoughts and ideas?
Dr. Jenna Jambeck is a scientist from the University of Georgia. She is studying plastic pollution using an app called Marine Debris Tracker and she needs your help! You can help by tracking the litter you find in your community.
Observation is paying close attention to something to get information. For example, by observing a bird, we can learn about its wings and learn how it flies. To make observations we use our five senses: seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, and sometimes taste.
