Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. You only have to share your children’s curiosity. 16 Listen to their question. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me "textbook questions" about schooling, salary and whether I liked my job.
17 Finally I said, "Now that we're finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?" After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, "Have you aver seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢)eat leaves? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?”
18 . Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their wait time to three seconds or more,children give more logical, complete and creative answer. Watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion,don’t jump in with "That's right" or "Very good". 19 But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying, “That’s interesting” or “I'd never thought of it that way before, or coining up with more questions or ideas.
