    Childrens inolement with science begins from the moment they startinteracting with and exploring their enironment. Their innate curiosity leadshem t make assumptions predict otcomes and try to tst their predictions Itis the responsibili of teachers and parents t proide a ich enirnment foriquiry and exploration where children can experience and enjoy ding science

    e ollwng conceps should be undrstood aer the class has studied and takencare of some of the aboementioned animals

    All animals are created by Alah SWT)* All animals hae basic need of food shelter and warmth* Animals hae specic behair* Animals make different sounds and communicae with eac other* Animals hae dierent colo and sies* indness to animals is equired from the Muslims* Some animals feed us and some work for us

    * Some plants feed us and some do not* Some plants that help us are trees grass all food plants and herbs

    2 hysca scence:

    Children should be provided experiences in some of the ver basic phenomena ofphsical science such as:

    Temperature : hot warm and cold (water food or an obect)

    Seasons : Fall winter spring and summer

    Daily cycles: Da and night

    States of matter: Solid liquid and gas.

    eath scence and saf t
