Online Kindergarten Science Curriculum
Kindergarten is an exciting milestone, marking the start of a learning journey full of growth, discovery, and new experiences. In science lessons, curiosity takes center stage as students begin to explore and better understand the world around them.
In kindergarten science, students learn to ask questions, notice patterns, and explore their world. They also practice observing, comparing, and making simple predictions. These early skills help students think like scientists and build a strong understanding of how the world works.
Miacademy makes kindergarten science a blast! With interactive lessons and hands-on activities, kids build curiosity and essential science skills in a fun way they’ll never forget.
