Welcome to our Life Studies Blog! This is the place where you can come to see and listen to what is happening in Kindergarten in regards to science! We have a wonderful 4 Winds science education program that is run and lead by parents. In Kindergarten we also do a lot of outside discovery within the natural world. Young children are curious and great observers. We spend lots of time in the natural world looking for patterns, similarities and connections.

The Hot Chocolate Experiment!
This afternoon the children had an opportunity to be a scientist. Everyone was able to make predictions and observations about what they thought would happen and then what actually happened! The children had great observations about what happened to the hot coco when hot water and cold water were used. The hot water seemed to dissolve faster than the cold. Discussions were had about why this might happen.
*** The idea for this experiment is from another Kindergarten teacher(also a follower on this blog!) This is a great way to connect with others, reflect with your child about what you see and hear and to share/inspire other teachers. All it takes is an idea!*****
