At Golden Pond School, we have chosen to link our students first steps into literacy with the exploration of the world around them, as reflected through children’s literature. Our hands-on, science-based activities are built upon the theme-related books that our children are enjoying. On any given day, after reading stimulating and thought provoking classic children’s literature, our students can be found:
- discovering how chicks hatch
- taking rain walks
- painting with ice cubes
- mixing red and yellow to make the perfect orange
- planting pumpkins
- constructing weathervanes
- exploring the metamorphosis of ladybugs
- taking spider walks
- going on worm hunts
Come see the fun and ask the kids “why?” – you’ll be surprised by their scientific responses!
