Explanation:

In a science class, the focus is on understanding the natural world and the reasons behind natural phenomena. Option A (writing a poem) is more related to Arts (Literature). Option B (learning about the word "hexagon") is more of a language - related (Arts - Linguistics) or basic definition - learning (could be in Math as a geometric term but not in a science context here). Option C (looking for hexagons in nature) is a surface - level observation. Option D (finding out why snowflakes are hexagons) delves into the scientific reason behind a natural phenomenon, which is in line with the exploration of cause - effect relationships in science.
