“I am among those who think that science has great beauty.” Marie Curie Have you ever seen galactic images from the Hubble space telescope? Spectacular. Have you ever seen velcro magnified 100X? Amazing. Have you ever seen the inside of a cell close up and personal? Wow. I hope that there will be many ‘wow’ moments for you in science class this year as we take time to appreciate the gifts of beauty that exist around us and learn the amazing ways in which they function. The study of science is many things, the least of which is a body of facts. Science is an attitude that is willing to see things from a different point of view. Science asks us to not judge until all facts are present. Science is a way of thinking that helps us make sense of the world around us. Most importantly, science is a vehicle to allow us to appreciate our Creator in a different light. Science helps us turn our dreams into reality. We have only to travel back a few years to see this reality. Can you imagine your life without computers, i Pods, cell phones, video games? Just ask your parents. It is important that science does not exist in a vacuum. All subjects are connected to science. Most obviously math, as it is often the language in which science is expressed. Technology is integral; it helps us express data graphically and is a tremendous source for research. Science is inseparable from the study of Religion; it helps us understand and appreciate God. Even in Social Studies, scientific discoveries have been the catalyst of many historical events.
