Children learn best through hands-on exploration, observation, and discovery. With more than one hundred activities, The Preschool Scientist gives children the opportunity to actively engage, experiment, create, and discover the exciting world of science. Using a unique inquiry-based approach, these activities explore science through learning centers, integrating this important subject into the entire classroom. Each of the activities has "Keep It Simple" and "Add a Challenge" sections, so teachers can adjust the difficulty to their unique classrooms.
Organized by topic, chapters include:
- Alike and Different
- Exploring Motion
- Exploring Change
- Exploring Tools
- Working with Water
- Light and Shadows
- Getting to Know Our World
With this hands-on approach, children will have fun developing problem-solving skills while becoming comfortable with exploring their world.
