When learning about science, a hands-on approach gives students the most benefits. I am a little taken by Esquith’s section, “I Don’t Have Time to Teach Science.” I agree with him about teaching science takes a lot of time and money. However, it is not right to assume that beginning teachers will not need to or have the time to teach science. With acknowledging that science and social studies is the first thing teachers will cut, when time runs short, I personally do not want to start teaching by avoiding these subjects. I agree with Esquith, some of the best learning takes place when students wrongly address to solve a problem and must readdress it. Like Spencer, the so-called “science geeks” usually do turn out on the top. So encourage students to take interest in science and ignore the rude and negative comments from others.
