An Introduction to Pre-Kindergarten Science
Children have a natural curiosity about the world around them. In Pre-K they should be encouraged to make observations and describe how they are interacting with their surroundings. By the end of the school year, students will:
- Express curiosity about the natural environment through observation and active play.
- Begin to participate in simple investigations, like predicting what might happen next and testing observations.
- Start putting items that are important in a child's world (toys, pets, foods, etc.) into categories based on observable features.
- Talk about major features of the Earth's surface (streams, hills, etc.) found in their daily natural environment.
