Miss Kim
Kimberly brings her experience of over 20 years in the classroom to manage our Young Learners program! Her personal philosophy about learning especially at the TK/K level is that every moment is a learning opportunity. She uses open ended questions with her students to get them talking without giving too much of her own input. This helps all students, especially the ones that may be timid about sharing their ideas, to feel confident. She also brings being a good listener to this program too, because everyone wants to be heard and validated. Children are sponges and absorb it all! Miss Kim loves doing art activities and making songs to help reinforce whatever we may be learning at that time.
Young Learners: Science Of Me
All of our Young Learners love our hands-on science classes where everyday we run experiments, play games and complete activities that help us to learn and remember! In our Science and Me class, students explore one of their favorite topics; themselves! We learn how science relates to ourselves in the most basic, everyday ways.
We will learn about our 5 senses, germs and getting sick, why we wash our hands and other ways to stay healthy, healthy foods. We'll learn about anatomy by investigating what each of our major body parts does to help us everyday. We will do taste tests, simple experiments using our bodies such as push and pull, and engage in kinesthetic learning by moving our bodies.
