The study of science and technology is vital to children in an ever changing world. Science teaches basic skills and concepts and helps children become careful and accurate observers and recorders, creative and accurate experimenters, and skilled problem solvers.
Children learn about themselves and their natural environment.
Biological, physical, and natural sciences are part of the elementary science curriculum. Through the use of technology, learning is reinforced throughout the total school curriculum. Technology is used in various educational settings as an integral part of the curriculum.
