When you think of physics, you might think of a professor or scientist working out complex formulas or scribbling notes on paper, but physics, at its most basic, is a subject that children find endlessly fascinating, accessible, and relevant. Physics explains how the world around us works, Children are natural physicists. As they jump from play equipment, dangle from a tree, or topple a block structure, they’re learning about the world through play.
Teaching children physics requires only a curious mind and an understanding that children learn through concrete means.
So, our EY 3 went on a trip to our school’s physics lab. There they had a hands-on-leaning with the measurement of length, height, and weight. The learning culminated with the most interesting topic for kids – Magnets. Children were overwhelmed to have their hands on the lab apparatus thus setting a head start into their scientific journey.
