Welcome To Science ! Debby Mayhew, NBCT SCIENCE Early Adolescence
Science (Latin origin: "Scire") means "To Know" or "Knowledge." But as Albert Einstein once said, "Information is not knowledge". The ability to use information is knowledge. Science is a never-ending process; a constant search and gathering of evidence to understand the world around us. Science includes the Visible, the Invisible and the Entire Universe!

For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand."
