In Pre-K Creative Curriculum, the nature and outdoor exploration component falls under the “Science/Discovery” domain, specifically focusing on “The Natural World”. Some key elements include:
Encouraging children to observe, explore, and ask questions about plants, animals, and the environment.
Opportunities to collect and classify natural objects (leaves, rocks, seeds) and discuss their properties.
Fostering curiosity, sensory experiences, and scientific thinking through hands-on investigation.
