Science

Children are natural scientists. They try to figure out just how the world 

works by engaging in a series of steps called the scientific method. 

The scientific method includes observing, forming questions, making 

predictions, designing and carrying out experiments, and discussing. Children are using a basic form of the scientific method (or performing little experiments) as they explore and discover the world around them! Children find patterns and build theories to explain what they see, and collect “data” to test those theories. A theory is like a guess or possible explanation for something.  Like scientists, children learn from others. They watch what children and adults do and learn from trying to repeat what they’ve seen or by asking questions and seeing the results.

Tehnology

Beside cell phones and computers “T” in technology also stands for any type of man-made object: pulleys, wheels, levers, scissors, ramps... They support children’s cognitive development, because as children play with these tools, they observe and learn from the underlying 

cause and effect. These simpler technologies allow children to understand

 how tools help us accomplish tasks. Children can see the cause and effect

 behind them, like how adding wheels below a large object makes it easier 

to move, or how raising a ramp makes a ball roll faster.

       Engineering

                                         Engineering applies science, math, and technology to solving problems.                                                           Engineering is using materials, designing, crafting, and building – it helps us understand how and why things work. 

When children build with blocks they are acting as engineers. When children construct a house of snow, pillows, or cardboard, they are solving structural problems. When they figure out how objects fit together, they are engineering.
