Kindergarten- S.T.E.M

Science. Technology. Engineering. Math. Build number sense and science knowledge with new friends. Practice counting and cardinality to 20 and to 100, adding and subtracting with number bonds to 10, reading the clock hours, recognizing fractions as a quantity of equal parts, characterizing 2D and 3D shapes, counting with coins, comparing quantities, estimating, measuring, recording data with pictographs, spelling and reading math words, and solving problems with manipulatives, pictures models, and number sentences. Like good scientists, make observations and inferences, devise and test hypotheses, model natural systems, test established scientific theories, and be amazed by God’s creation. Embark on the study of life and physical sciences plus engineering and technology, including the skeletal and muscular system, plant structures and life cycle, air, clouds, magnets, rock types, buoyancy, tectonic plates and volcanoes, and a sun-moon-earth model of days, seasons, years, moon phases, tides, and eclipses. Get to know foundational technologies: the lever and the printing press. Engineer foil boats, stomp rockets, windsocks and pinwheels. Class time for group instruction, exploration and discussion, plus independent and small group time to revisit and practice concepts, cement understanding, and learn through fun.

Cost covers the semester.
