  1. What is science?? Unit 1/Day 2

  2. Science is… The study of the world around us Biology is the study of living things. Chemistry is the study of the elements. Physics is the study of motion.

  3. Science is… The process of asking questions (hypothesis) and testing those questions with an experiment. Today we will be conducting a science experiment…

  4. Paper Tower Challenge!! Today, you will be building a tower made out of paper as tall as you possibly can!! But first, NERD CLIP!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FKhOH1jvqU

  5. Engineers – they build things, like killer robots!! People that have careers in building skyscrapers, such as the Sears Tower, are Civil Engineers. Architects make the building look nice, but it is the engineer that makes sure the building is sturdy and can withstand whatever nature throws at it.

  6. First Skyscraper Until the 1800’s, buildings were generally only about 4 stories tall. There were a few skyscrapers built before 1900.
