LET'S GET PRECISE!

In our recent labs we've continued to work on precision. From the 3cm ruler activity to the Rainbow Lab.... it's all about being precise.   But why?? Why is it so important to be precise?  Think about it!  So many reasons - in science... and in life actually.  Check out this video of Desean Jackson - he's talking about precision in football!  (Of course, I have no idea who Desean Jackson is... but Mr. Emerson shared this with me.  I guess he's some sort of famous wide receiver eh?)  PRECISION!  Skip to 2:05 to get to the precision part if you wish.



REFLECTION..... Create a blog post and do the following:
1) Label your post properly for science

2) Go to creative commons and find a picture of someone being really precise

3) Write a strong explanation of why precision is an important skill for science and life

4) Include an example from outside of school where being precise is important.  This can be from you or from an adult job or experience you or someone you know has had.
