Science

Greetings Parents and Guardians,

Can you believe winter is almost here? December is a time to discover temperature and how things can change when the temperature changes. Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius. This knowledge helps your child predict the weather-will it rain or snow?

Rigorous Instruction

Instruction is customized, inclusive, motivating, and aligned to the Common Core. High standards are set in every classroom. Students are actively engaged in ambitious intellectual activity and developing critical thinking skills.

K-How do pushes and pulls influence the way an object moves?

1^st-How do we see objects and hear sounds?

2^nd-How do wind and water change land?

3^rd- How do the traits of an organism help it to survive in its environment?

4^th-What are the properties of electricity and magnetism?
