__Big Idea 1**:** What Scientists Do__


 * ​Prior to this lesson, it is imperative that you introduce them to their Science Notebooks. Get them interested in it by first letting them decorate the outside of their notebooks, if you choose, and establishing their notebooks by organizing it with the first page containing a photograph of the student and them saying "I Am a Scientist!" Everything from here on should go in their Science Notebooks.**
