Science will be a big part of our curriculum because it's hands on and fun! Each week the experiments will be either related to the letter of the week (like experiments with air for A-week) or the theme of the week (like 5 senses experiments for human body week).
With all of the experiments the kids will be encouraged to predict the outcome, test their predictions, and then talk about the how and why of their results.
All science experiments will be safe and age appropriate for the preschool crowd, however the correct scientific terminology will be used as much as possible.
Here are some great science resources I have found so far:
