On your paper draw what you picture in your mind when I say

the word “scientist”.

Stereotypes….when you think one idea applies to a whole group of people

For example: Many people think ALL scientists have crazy hair or no hair at all!!

Sometimes it can be true for SOME!

May wear a white lab coat, but may not Sometimes wear goggles Work many different places, not just a lab Use all types of equipment, not just test

tubes Are REAL people who look like you and

me!!—men and women!!
