Science For Everyday: A Montessori Based Science Curriculum
Right for independent study, this Montessori-based science curriculum provides a structured approach to introducing scientific concepts through direct experience and observation. Organized by month with color-coded dividers, it offers age-appropriate experiments and activities that connect science to everyday experiences, supporting the child's natural curiosity about the physical world.
“Education is a natural process spontaneously carried out by the human individual, and is acquired not by listening to words but by experiences upon the environment.”— Maria MontessoriEducation for a New World
Science For Everyday transforms abstract scientific concepts into concrete experiences through its month-by-month organization and hands-on experiments. The color-coded dividers in this curriculum guide children to independently select and sequence their scientific investigations, honoring their intrinsic motivation to understand natural phenomena. Each experiment in Science For Everyday connects to familiar objects and experiences, allowing children to discover scientific principles through manipulation of real materials. The curriculum's structured progression from simple observations to more complex experiments mirrors the child's developing capacity for abstract thought between ages 3-6. Science For Everyday provides the framework for children to become scientific observers of their environment, documenting discoveries through drawing and simple recording. The monthly organization allows teachers to integrate seasonal phenomena with the curriculum's experiments, creating meaningful connections between classroom learning and the natural world outside.
Step by Step to Mastery
Read through the entire experiment beforehand to gather all necessary materials
Allow children to explore materials freely before beginning the structured activity
Use minimal language during demonstration, letting the phenomenon speak for itself
Resist correcting minor variations - these often lead to interesting discoveries
Provide templates initially, gradually moving toward independent recording methods
