See how we have been exploring Science and Nature!
Bright and colorful jelly bean science
After introducing the letter Jj this week, we reinforced our new letter’s sound with some j-j-jelly bean science.
Waking up our bears
We are waking our bears after a long winter’s sleep. Come and see our celebration of our hibernation in preschool!
Tucking our bears in for a long winter’s sleep
We are making caves for our bears to hibernate in all winter long.
Time to hibernate
We are stuffing bears and putting them down for a long winter’s nap for a lesson on hibernation.
Two second snow science
This simple winter science is just one example of keeping busy during the cold arctic days of a winter blast here in the midwest!
Exploring the sounds of glass
As part of our study on glass, we spent time exploring the sounds of glass in preschool!
Exploring and creating with sugar glass
Our pre-k class participated in exploring and creating beautiful designs and mosaics with sugar glass.
G is for [sugar] glass
Sugar glass looks and feels almost like real glass only it is made purely of sugar. I prepared several batches of sugar glass to take to preschool and explore.
Investigating the parts of a spider through fine motor play
I have always wanted to try gelatin play and finally took the time to put it together using our own version of spider parts and it was totally worth it.
Learning with leaves
After gathering a set of leaves, the children explored the leaves by sorting them on our table chart and making leaf confetti!
Scientists ask questions
Today I’d like to share an activity that we did with our pre-k students to extend our study of the tools scientists use and to encourage them to “think like a scientist.”
Exploring the tools of a scientist
We read the story “Meet Einstein” and then explored the tools of a scientist in our preschool classroom! A super fun filled day of scientific discovery!
Fall flower water science
Yesterday I shared with you how we explored and collected the colors of fall flowers and today I want to share with you our fall flower water science.
Exploring the colorful flowers of fall
Since our leaves haven’t changed color yet we introduced fall colors by exploring the flowers of fall and soon we will explore fall leaves.
Will the animals eat our apples?
We went outdoors to find the answer to our question “Will animals eat apples?” for our science and discovery in preschool.
