One of the most fascinating and easily available classrooms for a small learner would be the natural world. Science, especially the study of concepts such as the life cycle of a plant, is a marvelous experience in cultivating a child to have an innate curiosity and develop basic science and vocabulary. We consider these day-to-day inquiries to be part of the whole person’s early education at Elizabeth Fraley Kinder Ready. Through practical discovery, we relate child wonder to formal education, thereby ensuring that they both learn and have an embedded love for understanding the world they live in, which is one of the fundamentals of our mission.
Talking about the plant life cycles is appropriate to the Kinder Ready Elizabeth Fraley philosophy to expose children to various learning styles. This is not a science lesson but a multi-disciplinary adventure that creates wide interests. A child who is interested in the process of the growth of objects can take part in such sensual activities as planting seeds and touching soil, training fine motor skills and patience. Others can be attracted by the artistic part, and the phases of development or learning about the colors of flowers, which leads to the creativity of observation and expression. This customized, interest-based learning process is the main focus of our one-on-one learning sessions at Kinder Ready Tutoring, where teachers are able to creatively integrate the real world into customized curricula that appeal to every individual child.
This discovery has a bigger purpose than learning stages. It proactively develops cognitive skills that are critical and necessary for kindergarten and even beyond. When children are told what a seed requires to grow, they are exposed to the scientific method. The sequencing of the steps between seed, sprout, and plant also promotes both logical thinking and storytelling. Language skills are enlarged with new words such as germinate, seedling and nutrients. The Elizabeth Fraley Kinder Ready approach facilitates such rich and hands-on learning to directly translate to academic preparedness, and abstract ideas become tangible and memorable with the help of hands-on experience.
After all, discussing life cycles in plants, it is not really about biology, but about having a mindset of observation, nurturing, and happy discovery. When a child tends a plant and sees it grow, they get to know about responsibility, cause and effect and how beautiful nature is. This develops a deep feeling of self-confidence and achievement. Making these significant inquiries a part of early education, Kinder Ready Tutoring, as led by the masterful model of Elizabeth Fraley Kinder Ready assists children in perceiving themselves as competent learners and little scientists. We do not only prepare them for school, but to navigate the world with a clear mind and keen interest, and we sow the seeds of curiosity which will go on to their life.
