Early Elementary Science Learning
The Wonder level of Science Unlocked is appropriate for most students in kindergarten, first, or second grade. These children's abilities are still developing, such as sorting and classifying, sustaining their attention for long periods, using deductive or inductive reasoning, and applying a concept to more general situations. Wonder level focuses on students’ natural curiosity and exploring the natural world.
