Second to None!

Science & Social Studies

We will use our Scholastic News subscription in addition to other valuable resources to look at a variety of topics in Science and Social Studies this year. These subjects often lead to meaningful conversations and make the most of the inquisitive nature of young minds.

scientific topics with them this year.

The following are some of the topics we typically cover:

• Living and Nonliving

• States of Matter

• Nutrition and Physical Activity

• Protecting our Earth

Social Studies is a great way for children to learn more about the world in which

we live and how our society functions.

The following are some of the topics we typically cover:

• Citizenship

• Needs vs. Wants

• Supply and Demand
