When I was in school, I didn't like science class very much. I found it boring and I never enjoyed it.
However, just because that was my experience, it doesn’t mean the same should happen with my preschool students.
See, young children are full of curiosity and love experimenting with the environment around them.
To them, the world is full of wonders and they want to discover and learn about all of it.
Using their natural curiosity and my science center tips, you can help them understand the world and how it works in a fun and interesting way.
How can you build a science center that will have your students eager to learn?

Interesting how other set up their science centres! We just finished maple syrup themed one , followed by life cycle if a chicken! So much fun!

[@KathyHutto]

Love the idea of science centers. SO many possibilities! 🐥🌺🌿

[@maryjanecreate]

Thank you. This is helpful.

[@annettetuck9272]

Does each child have their own recording journal? If so, where are they stored?

[@PreKPagesvideos]

In a basket. They just small paper booklets so they don't take up much space.

Do I see a Mrs. Wishy Washy doll behind you?? I would love to know how to obtain it. Thank you!

[@PreKPagesvideos]

Yes! I got it from Joy Cowley's publisher Hameray a few years ago, www.hameraypublishing.com/collections/mrs-wishy-washy

Have you ever grown an advocado?

[@PreKPagesvideos]

No, that's a new one to me. Have you done it?

[@charlenesteward195]

@@PreKPagesvideos No, not with success! But I saw it in a science experiment book . I would like to try it again though.

I grew a potato this year and it was so interesting for the class. I just put craft sticks in the sides of the potato and placed in a plastic container with water half way up the potato. We started this in January and by May the green stems were taller than most of the students! The roots were abundant and the students could really witness the growth of each part of a potato plant.

[@charlenesteward195]

I think I'll try that one this coming year.🥔
