Science
Children have a natural sense of wonder about the world and a genuine desire to understand it. They persistently ask, “Why?” They take things apart that they can’t always put back together again. They collect bugs in the backyard. The key to a great science program is simply to keep this flame of curiosity lit!
Trinity School’s science curriculum takes a student’s natural curiosity about the world as the starting point for all investigation. Your child will be coached early on to look carefully, to record observations, to identify patterns and to ask questions about what he or she has observed, tools that will serve students as they encounter the natural world.
During this unusual time of distance learning, Jon Balsbaugh, president of Trinity Schools Inc, offers daily enrichment activities for students and teachers. The goal is to fill some of the gaps in our school culture created because we are apart -- especially the creation and appreciation of beauty and the hands-on nature of engaging reality. The activities are ungraded and require little from the students other than their active participation.
