What is Science?

Science is a way to find out things. Sometimes the word "science" is used to refer to the knowledge that is found using the methods of science.

The word science is from the Latin word "scio", which means "to know".

People who do science are called scientists. Scientists study things by looking at them very carefully, by measuring them, and by doing experiments and tests. Scientists try to explain why things act the way they do, and are the way they are.
