Principal Science is an important core subject at each grade level K-8.
Science is taught by each primary teacher in an integrated way.
Ms. Boucher and kindergartners are now focusing on Farm Animals and will visit Old MacDonald s farm next week. They are also investigating snails. Students are looking at living and non-living forces that operate in living systems and are studying habitats. They will extend their environmental studies to Field Studies when they spend two nights at a camp near Salem where there is a stream, pond, meadow, old growth forest and logged forest. Science begins to be more departmentalized in the fourth and fifth grade levels.
