Our Science enrichment/STEM program introduces your child to a variety of science and math topics and allows him/her to develop an innate curiosity of the world. Our goal is to encourage the children to learn the basics of scientific observation by providing different materials and opportunities to touch, observe, manipulate, and experiment. We will explore many topics including force and motion, light and color, sound, magnets, chemistry, water, air, and the life cycle of plants. Monday afternoon’s kindergarten students will also be introduced to electricity and engineering. Each science class is planned around a different topic and the children are encouraged to explore the science through a variety of experiments and projects.
