Mandy’s Reading Class 10th January 99 Who were these famous people? Copernicus Antoni Van Leeuwenhoek Galileo Louis Pasteur Marie Curie Isaac Newton Einstein a.tom (n) – They are tiny tiny bits that we can’t see. (ex. Everything is made of atoms) bac.te.ria (n) – Very tiny animals (ex. There are both good and bad bacteria.) blind (adj) – Cannot see, unable to (ex. Blind people need a dog to walk down the street). cen.ter (n) – The middle of something (ex. The man stood in the center of the circle.) cur.[i].ous (v) - Want to know more, interested (ex. Newton was curious about why the apple fell from the tree.) Learn something that you didn’t know before dis.cov.ery (n) – (ex. The scientist made an exciting discovery.) di.sease (n) – Something that makes you sick (ex. Disease is caused by bad bacteria in your body.) en.er.gy (n) – Energy lets you do things. It is inside everything you see. (ex. 1. Children always have a lot of energy. 2. At night you only have a little energy so you sleep to get more.). ev.[i].dence (n) – Something you show to prove what you say is true. (ex. Galileo showed that the Earth went around the sun using a telescope. This was his evidence.) ex.per.[i].ment (n) – A test scientists do when they ask questions (ex. We always do many experiments in Science class.) grav.[i].ty (n) – Pulls everything to the ground (ex. Newton proved that gravity stops the moon flying away from the Earth.) in.spire (v) – Give people new ideas (ex. 1. A falling apple inspired Newton to ask why it fell. 2. The children were inspired after going to the museum.) mic-ro-scope (n) - Helps you see TINY things easily that are very close (ex. Mandy could see lots of bacteria using her cool microscope.) proof (n) something you show someone so they’ll – believe it’s true (ex. Stephen’s passport is proof he comes from England.) ob.ject – or.bit (v) – A thing The path of an object around another object. (ex. 1. The moon is in orbit around the Earth. 2. The Earth is in orbit around the sun.) pla.net (adj) – A large round object near a star (ex. 1. Earth, Mars and Jupiter are all planets. 2. There are eight planets orbiting our sun.) te.le.scope (n) - Helps you see BIG things easily that are far away (ex. We can use telescopes to see planets far away.) ti.ny (adj) – Very very small (ex. Bacteria are really tiny animals that live in your body.) un.[i].verse – All the stars, planets and moons everywhere. (ex. 1. The universe is a very big place. 2. There are billions of stars and planets in the universe.) we.ird (adj) – strange (ex. 1. Ms. Frizzle is a very weird teacher.) Questions 1. What did each scientist in the story discover? 2. Why did the children go to the science museum? 3. What do scientists always do? 4. How do they learn from each other? Give examples. 5. Why is scientist’s work sometimes dangerous? 6. What did Einstein say at the end of the story? Now finish the KWL chart you started when you began the story!
