It looks a lot like the five senses of touch, smell, feel, look and sound. Preschool aged children are already innately curious and motivated to learn about the world around them.
“In a high quality pre-Kindergarten program, teachers are encouraging questions, helping children form theories and hypotheses, and providing a safe environment for exploration and experimentation. Outdoor experiences that put young children in touch with nature promote an understanding of the life sciences, geology, physics, oceanography and all of the other branches of science. Spider webs are geometric marvels of form and function (science, math and engineering) and children will stop along a trail to watch (observation) — much more closely than many adults — with wonder, awe and mild apprehension.”
if you are on the hunt for a preschool program for your little one, keep these things in mind as you evaluate the programs you are considering.
