Scientists can be boys or girls, but they have to be at least 21 years old.

A scientist asks questions like who, what, when, where, why and how.

Scientists use their 5 senses when they make observations.

Observations that are recorded by a scientist don't need to be accurate or detailed.

A magnifying glass is a tool that scientists use when they need to gather more information than their eyes can see alone.

A microscope is not as powerful as a magnifying glass.
