We have been talking about jobs that adults do. We know that a lot of them have jobs that can help us. Today one of our mums came to school to talk to us about being a biomaterials scientist. Norahella works in a biomedical company that designs, makes and tests devices that can be put into the top of peoples tummies to help with reflux problems. It is a very important job that helps lots of sick people. In Norahella's company there is a test dummy on which to practise inserting the device. The scientists in her company wear white coats and goggles in case their eyes or clothes get splashed while doing lots of experiments. Being a scientist sounds great. To be scientists we have to keep our eyes and ears open, to ask lots of questions about the world around us and to try some interesting experiments and investigations. Thanks to Norahella for her really interesting talk. We all want to be scientists when we grow up!
