I was recently reading the May/June 2022 issue of \u201cScience and Children\u201d a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.\xa0\xa0In this issue, I read the \u201cScience 101\u201d column, written by Matt Bobrowsky.\xa0 He wrote an article entitled, \u201cWhat Makes a Great Science Investigation?\u201d

Real-world science doesn\u2019t involve a series of steps, and there\u2019s not always a single correct answer.\xa0 Real science is exploration and discovery and lots of fun!\xa0 Scientific investigations are open-ended and can keep being extended or expanded, so too is learning an ongoing endeavor.\xa0 Isaac Asimov said, \u201cEducation isn\u2019t something you can finish.\u201d
