Kindergarten Science Online-Full Year
Science K brings science alive by providing students a combination of virtual lab investigations (with options for hands-on learning), interactive lessons that provide opportunities for inquiry, and an array of e-books that capture students’ attention and grow their interest in science.
The curriculum begins with an overview of what science is and who scientists are. Students then focus on plant and animal relationships and analyze the weather. In the last half of the course, students explore how the sun affects their world and explore the interactions between different forces.
This course calls for the following household materials, though they are optional, since digital versions of all labs are available:
· blanket
· composition book, notebook, or loose-leaf paper to use as a Science Notebook*
· crayons, markers, or colored pencils
· hat
· scissors
· toy car
· umbrella
*Students may choose to keep a digital Science Notebook.
