Learning begins with curiosity. The science curriculum at the elementary level is designed to help spark curiosity in our students and inspire the next generation of innovators and inventors to ask more WHYs, think more critically, and become creative problem solvers. This approach to science will prepare students for a future full of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) opportunities with hands-on, real-world problem-solving instruction designed for 21st century standards and learners. Today’s students need to be curious, develop hypotheses, conduct investigations, take on engineering challenges—and communicate their results and theories clearly and with evidence. In other words, they need to learn to think like scientists.
