Kindergarten students learned how to prepare for an interview by using their speaking and listening skills to learn more about their friends’ toy preferences. Using these skills, they were able to solve problems, play cooperatively, and follow classroom rules. Also, they learned more about their friends' preferences and were able to create new toys using recyclables.

Kindergarten students learned how to classify animals and different species. Students researched various animals and chose a specific animal to illustrate. Then students engaged in the peer critique process to refine their drawings. Next they created digital presentations using coding to showcase their knowledge with the community.
Field Trip: High Touch and High Tech
Students were able to learn more about living things, animal habitats, and comparing animal moms and babies
Field Experiences: Plants and Animals
Plants:
  • A speaker from Convivial Garden educated students about the trees in the school courtyard. Students were able to learn more about what plants need to survive and the different stages of the growth process.
Animals:
  • Students went to the Fernbank museum and were able to learn about the basic needs of animals.

​Scratch Animation Gallery

Students animated their animal drawings using Scratch, a drag-and-drop coding language for beginners. The students chose a background habitat for their animals and coded sounds, movements and voiceovers. ​

Hummingbird Robots

Kindergarten students were able to take the animals they researched for their PBL project and made (very) basic robots. Students used the arts and crafts trunk to turn their animals into cardboard versions and the Hummingbird STEAM trunk to put the head on motors so they moved. Students were able to decorate their animals with glowing or googly eyes!
