Science Learning Experience for Children: Observation, Inquiry, and Communication

This science learning experience aims to engage children in scientific inquiry through observation, investigation, and documentation. It focuses on properties, characteristics, and changes in both living and nonliving objects and materials. Children will develop skills such as description, questioning, measurement, comparison, prediction, and communication. Through this experience, they will gain a deeper understanding of science and its relevance in their lives.
