Young Scientist
Young Scientist is a yearlong science hands-on activity program connected to the school curriculum that aims to increase the understanding and the application of science among children. Each hands-on activity is designed to enhance scientific inquiry and higher-order thinking skills in children.These can dispel the children’s misconceptions because of traditional learning, and broaden the teacher’s bandwidth.
Children in the Young Scientist program learn to cross-relate their understanding from the activity to their learning in the curriculum. The hands-on activity can be conducted both individually and within a group. Each student receives an individual activity book and activity kit. Yardstick provides quarterly behavioral and conceptual assessment profile for every child in the program.
Yardstick's Young Scientist Program includes:
- Connection of the key learnings with the curriculum
