Science Week of August 18th

 

This week in Science, we are going to be starting our first Service Learning lesson, in which we will begin to talk about what service learning is. At Westgate, we describe service learning as: doing something helpful. We might help clean up our school, write kind notes to seniors, or plant a garden.​

  • We learn how to be kind, work together, and take care of our world.​
  • In Kindergarten, we will be learning about pollinators and helping support pollinator populations through small projects in our community.

We will also be starting our first science unit as a class, in which we will be taking a look at each of the seasons. We will be creating a ‘doll’ and then dressing it up for each season as we go! 

Science/Social Studies Week of August 11th

Next week we will begin our Science curriculum starting with the introduction of pollinators. This week, we will practice our fine motor skills, we will do this by center rotations, and continue to practice our classroom expectations.
