What are your Scientists up to?
In Science lab, I introduce and encourage the use of science notebooks. Notebooks are the perfect place for students to explain their thinking..... yes, even in kindergarten!! I try to have at least a vocabulary word for the lab's focus, or a short question if they are writing their letters now that they record in their notebook. Drawings are encouraged as emergent literacy. Their pictures can show what they are thinking! Please draw and write with your child everyday to describe their experiences in this amazing world. : )
