Dear Parents,
Our students are immersed in some amazing inquiry work right now. In our Pre-K classes, students are building structures and exploring the properties of water. In Kindergarten, students are exploring the weather and writing about it. In first grade, students are exploring everything sound related. And in second grade, students are investigating the properties of matter (solid, liquid, and gas). Each room is deep in exploration, learning with activities that engage both their minds and their senses. I’ve included a few pictures to illustrate the different scientific investigations from our day.
Have a great afternoon!
