Try This! – Meet Dr. Jovan!
SHARE
Scientists ask questions about many small things found in nature, the way Dr. Jovan asked questions about moss. Small things, like plants, rocks, soil, or animals, can tell scientists a lot of important information.
Go outside with your teacher, family, or friends and see if you can observe some small things in nature. Draw and write about what you observe.
