My Project

Spring is approaching quickly and we have so many fun activities planned for our students. Our science curriculum will be focused on plants and animals in these upcoming months. What better way for children to learn than to experience these life cycles firsthand? We will also be celebrating their end-of-the-year achievements with some special prizes!

Kindergarten will be hatching chicken eggs, releasing butterflies, and ladybugs, and growing a small garden this year!

The entire Kindergarten team will use the items in this project to create a science lab full of living things for our students to observe on a daily basis. Our students will get to watch the beauty of nature happen right before their eyes and create special memories!
