Montessori Primary Science
Montessori Primary Science
Primary science students actively engage in learning to view the world scientifically. This course is woven into sensorial, practical life and language activities. Children learn to observe, identify and classify as they care for classroom plants and animals. Nature walks offer opportunities to explore the physical properties of natural and artificial objects. Concepts such as magnetism and buoyancy are explored through class experiments. Students learn science through stories, songs, visual media, exploration and manipulation thus giving them an opportunity to experience science through their senses. Scientific vocabulary enrichment activities prepare the children to collect, observe, organize, record and interpret scientific information. Students are encouraged to analyze and evaluate their findings as they appease their natural curiosity for knowledge.
