“Little Explorers Science Lab: Where Young Minds Discover!”
Help me give my students a Science Center in our Kindergarten classroom. This will be a space where they can explore, create and experiment together the wonders of science!
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Having a science lab in kindergarten is important because it provides young children with hands-on learning experiences that spark curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking. At this age, kids learn best through exploration and play, and a dedicated science lab allows them to experiment, observe, and discover the world around them in a meaningful way.
A science lab helps develop foundational STEM skills, encourages problem-solving, and fosters a love for inquiry-based learning.
It also supports language development as children learn to ask questions, describe their observations, and collaborate with peers. Most importantly, it lays the groundwork for a lifelong interest in science and discovery, helping children develop the confidence to explore and understand the world.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
