SCIENCE 

In the Montessori environment, science is not taught as a series of isolated facts, but rather as a process of discovery and experimentation. The goal is to ignite children’s natural curiosity about the world around them and equip them with the tools they need to explore and understand it.

At Sprouts, we believe in providing ample opportunities for hands-on science activities that allow children to engage directly with the world. These activities are designed to spark curiosity and foster an early love for science, while helping children develop an understanding of scientific principles in a fun and meaningful way.

Sprouts offers a wide range of science activities that encourage children to explore nature, experiment with different scientific principles, and make discoveries on their own. For example, children engage in activities like observing plant growth, sorting objects by their properties, testing how materials react to heat or cold, and experimenting with basic physics concepts such as gravity and motion.

Science learning at Sprouts is also seamlessly integrated with other areas of the curriculum, particularly Practical Life. Activities like gardening, caring for plants, cooking, and sorting naturally introduce children to basic scientific principles such as nutrition, life cycles, and the environment. These hands-on experiences encourage children to explore how their actions connect with the natural world.

 Why Montessori Science?

Montessori's approach to science fosters a natural curiosity and respect for the environment. Children are not just passive recipients of facts—they become active participants in their own learning process. By engaging with the natural world and experimenting with scientific principles in a hands-on, interactive manner, children develop a lifelong love of learning.
