What Is Science?
Helping Your Child Learn Science.
Science is not just a collection of facts. Facts are a part of science. We all need to know some basic scientific information: water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (or 0 degrees Celsius), and the earth moves around the sun. But science is much more. It includes:
Observing what's happening;
Predicting what might happen;
Testing predictions under controlled conditions to see if they are correct; and
Trying to make sense of our observations.
Science fiction writer Isaac Asimov describes science as "a way of thinking," a way to look at the world.
Science also involves trial and error--trying, failing, and trying again. Science does not provide all the answers. It requires us to be skeptical so that our scientific "conclusions" can be modified or changed altogether as we make new discoveries.

Sorry dlwelnel, he did no longer have a aspect 5, he had aspect a million - 4 yet that's undesirable sufficient. See Timmyt's answer for a stunning description of the grading device for indecent images of toddlers. a million is bare pictures - 4 is sexual penetration, so in different words he has been observing pictures of adults raping toddlers. the purely ingredient worse than a 4 is a 5 that's beastiality or sadism related to toddlers. Any sexual innovations or movements in route of toddlers is disgusting and ill. they want to convey decrease back impressive for 'people' like this.

According to the dictionary definitions you have a excellent answer, especially for that grade level.
It is the observation, identification, description, experimental investigation, and theoretical explanation of phenomena.
phenomenon
An occurrence, circumstance, or fact that is perceptible by the senses.
An unusual, significant, or unaccountable fact or occurrence; a marvel.

Science deals with physical phenomena in the world. Through experimentation and creative thinking, we learn more about ourselves and our surroundings. It is this analytcal process and interpretation that constitutes scientifical methods and ultimately science itself. Science does not attempt to solve questions, but to provide answers to how they have come about.

Science is about gaining knowledge (facts) and understanding by testing an idea (experimenting).

science is an understanding of the world through intelligent people, like scientists. we can test their understanding ourselves through experiments, and learn from them directly through books and the internet. science has links to religion, in which they always oppose eachother, and science is leading the way in many ways because you can prove your point, by demonstrating or experimenting.
