The goals of the program are to teach each child to think and act like a scientist and to foster an interest and enjoyment of science. The students are continually reminded that no matter what they do in life, the ability to think and act analytically is essential. Children are encouraged to think of science as something they can experience anywhere - to notice the world around them and continually ask questions. During the students' years at the school, most of the State standards for K-6th grade are covered. The curriculum always incorporates the investigation and experimentation part of the standards. For the other standards - physical, life, and earth sciences - the content covered depends on the main subject that year which rotates among the three subjects annually. Each year, the standards are reviewed for each grade to see if something new needs to be included in the following year's curriculum. 46880 0 0 Reading Support and other reading-related programs provide reading intervention for Kensington Elementary School students. The program goal is to assist those students who struggle with reading fluency and comprehension to become successful and confident readers. If at any point in the year, they reach their individual goals, then they graduate out of the program with applause for their success. 44792 0 0 Playworks helps students stay active and build valuable life skills through play.
