Kindergarten Science – Simple Machines!
For the past couple of weeks, we have been studying and exploring Simple Machines. The key concepts I want the children to know and understand are:
- machines are all around us
- machines make work easier
- levers, inclined planes, and wedges are examples of simple machines
We have used Discovery Education and its United Streaming videos as part of our learning adventure. Here are some clips of the children creating these simple machines. They declared it to be a really Fun Friday!
