Science and scientists often face criticism from those who view it as useless and boring, with scientists being stereotyped as awkward nerds. However, science can actually be exhilarating, fun, and satisfying. To showcase this side of science, Chris Reddy, a scientist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, and Elizabeth Do, a librarian at Mullen Hall Elementary School, join us on The Point to discuss a new book titled “A Kids Book About Being a Scientist”. They also explore ways to encourage children to keep asking and answering those “why” questions.
In addition to discussing the importance of fostering curiosity in children, we also delve into strategies, activities, and books to keep kids and teens engaged in reading over the summer. Mary Cronin, K-2 Literacy coach at ME Small Elementary in Yarmouth, shares her insights on how to keep young readers motivated during the summer months. By promoting a love for reading and encouraging children to explore new topics, we can help them develop a lifelong passion for learning.
