Community Service: Sharing Science with Preschoolers

12/15/2017

 
Our 7th graders visited Kiddie Academy again to read STEM-themed books to three- and four-year-olds. Students split into three different groups to visit one of three classrooms, where they read a story and made a craft with the younger children. What a fun time filled with rainbows, ladybugs, and scientists-in-training! When we returned, we debriefed on our experience. Students felt they interacted better with the younger children and recounted some funny conversations! ​
