Flower blooming science experiment
ITS NEVER TOO EARLY TO SCIENCE!!!!
Young children are natural scientists, filled with curiosity to discover and understand the world around them.
So today in Kindergarten room we decided to do a little flower blooming science experiment. We asked all the children to colour on the paper and design a flower. Once they finished colouring the flowers we cut them into flower shapes and folded the flower petals into the centre. We poured some water in the tray and ask all the children to put their flowers one by one.
Yes! these little paper flowers will actually bloom ...
S C I E N C E W E E K !
Children are naturally inquisitive, full of questions about the world around them and they drive into our child-centered programs to investigate how things work. This week we celebrate National Science Week across the service, our passionate educators always finding small opportunities to advantage of the children's innate curiosity and start channeling their enthusiasm for science and discovery, we also look out for spontaneous, daily opportunities for scientific discovery, guided by you but ultimately led by the children. We encourage them to always experiment and ask questions : ) Happy Science WEEK
Well done to all of my team.
To celebrate Science Week we performed another experiment involving balloons and hair... yes, hair!
We described static electricity as this invisible energy to children as something that can make the strands of their hair stand. So we blew up some balloons and demonstrated how to do this experiment.
Kerry was up first and, as soon as the strands of her hair gravitated towards the balloon, everyone was amazed and could not stop laughing. Soon, everyone was taking turn repeating the process and their reactions still remained the same.
Simple expositions such as this provoke children’s curiosity and empower them to replicate, re-discover and reflect on scientific phenomena.
Thanks to our fantastic Kinder Teachers.....without question the best in the region. Great job!
