This is a three year Lower Elementary cultural curriculum outline based off of the Montessori curriculum. It can be utilized two different ways: You could use each year outline for one grade level per year.

Primary GATE -- AIR! Active, Creative, Academic, and Hands-on!

I am always trying to figure out what to do with my little primary groups, and this unit was a definite hit with my kindergartners.

It’s active, fun, and challenging for these little ones and seemed to have the right combination of “get up and move,” imagination, creativity, and “making” along with academic tasks. We learn about four important properties of air

Importance of learning science

Learning science is particularly important for students as it equips them with the essential knowledge and skills to make sense of the world around them. Science education is not just about memorizing facts. It fosters critical thinking, inquiry, and problem-solving abilities. These skills are not only useful in school but also in everyday life beyond the classroom.

Benefits of learning science

Learning science offers many benefits to students both in school and beyond. In fact, it helps students:

  • Question the world around them and seek evidence-based explanations
  • Cultivate their ability to observe, experiment, and analyze data
  • Nurture a sense of curiosity, awe, and wonder about the natural world
  • Understand natural phenomena and the laws that govern the universe

With a solid foundation in science, teachers can help empower students to think critically, solve problems, make informed decisions, and engage with the world around them in meaningful ways.

Teaching with science resources

One of the best parts about science class is all of the possibilities for hands-on, collaborative learning! Think: labs, experiments, inquiry-based activities, and design challenges. These activities encourage students to explore scientific concepts by observing, asking questions, and conducting investigations. Additionally, with small group centers, students can engage in group experiments, discussions, and projects that require them to collaborate, share ideas, and solve problems together.

On TPT, science resources come in various forms: from labs and worksheets to craftivities and doodle notes. They can be used to enhance learning, assess a student’s mastery of science concepts, or to reteach a tricky topic.

Plus, you can expand students’ knowledge even further by exploring TPT math resources, which are frequently paired with science lessons.
