Dear Diary, Today in science class we learned all about how to use a telescope to look at the stars. I wasn t interested in astronomy before, but this is fascinating! I can only speculate about how many stars I might be able to see once I learn how to really use the telescope. My teacher said it is important to make sure your vision is good before looking through a telescope because otherwise it will be hard to focus to see the stars clearly. He said that some of us might need to get spectacles in order to see better. I wasn t sure if I should tell him that these days we usually call them glasses, and not spectacles, but I didn t want to be rude. I suspect I might not get a good grade if I am rude to my teacher! I definitely don t want to disrespect him. In retrospect, it is definitely good that I didn t say anything about the spectacles. Leslie 1. What does it mean to speculate about something?
