Every morning starts with learning stations at House of Knowledge to foster imagination and creativity in children and to help get children interested and curious in various tpics.
What our learning stations can look like? This week, our Pre-K class children are having a “Flowers” theme related project and today, we would like to invite you to check out some highlights with us together.
This project not only helped to beautify the classroom but also helped the children to learn different vocabulary about flowers, such as roots, stem, leaves, and petals.
The children also learned how petals form part of a flower and their significance in attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies.
With a little guidance, they molded the clay into the shape of a flower and attached the petals to it to make their unique creations. This activity helped to improve their gross motor skills and gave them an opportunity to express their creativity.
The children placed petals on a sheet of paper and sprayed it with colored water. They added cotton balls to represent clouds and cut many little petals to act as the pouring rain. This activity helped the children learn about the phenomenon of rain and how it nourishes the plants.
As the project progressed, the children learned to appreciate the beauty of flowers, and their curiosity about the plants grew. They were curious to know about the different varieties of flowers and where they come from, giving them an opportunity to learn about different cultures and their significance in various parts of the world.
In conclusion, the Pre-K flower project is an excellent way to introduce children to science, art, and culture. It provides them with a hands-on experience that helps develop their creativity, and they learn different vocabulary about flowers.
The project also helps the children understand the importance of caring for plants and encourages them to be responsible environmentalists. This project lays the foundation for future botanical studies and has the potential to create lifelong appreciation for the beauty and importance of flowers.
