探索外
火焰的大, 240-acre campus provides ample opportunities for students to explore the outdoors - to touch, 看到, and hear what they learn in the classroom. Elementary students enjoy educational gardens, nature walks, and outdoor play. 在初中和高中, students explore 皇冠体育官网's 100-acre conservation easement as part of their science curriculum.
不要只看到. 观察!
皇冠体育官网’s early childhood outdoor science curriculum is based on the idea that science is not simply a set of content objectives to memorize. It is a process in which students can be engaged. 早期科学包括:
Observing and talking about what you 看到
Asking questions about what you observe
Noticing properties and describing them
Noticing patterns, cause-effect, and change
Crafting reasonable explanations using evidence
Conducting simple investigations
Research shows that participation in interactive experiences are strong predictors of later science achievement. All of this background confirms our emphasis at 皇冠体育官网 on active hands-on science with our youngest students and demonstrates the value of our campus resources and facilities.
