SGP in ACTION

Our young naturalists noticed a nest at the front door. With camera in place, they listened each morning. At long last, the noisy hatchlings are out of their eggs and hungry!

They've hatched! It's is now time to gather the ducklings relocate them to a space where they'll have access to water. Our young naturalists must unite as they work to save this feathered family.

Every year, the 4- and 5-year-olds of pre-k go camping. This year's spring campout was filled with wild animals. Goslings, turtles, an owl, a snake, frogs, raccoons and more spent time near our campsite.

The pre-kindergarterners at SGP are building a dog house for a mystery puppy. Their first prototype of popsicle sticks wasn't big enough, so they built their second prototype with green paper and included a door that opens and closes. Will this house withstand the exploration of a dog?

There's a pink elephant in the woods at SGP and children have endeavored to investigate. Building a bias toward action, SGP teachers invite young learners to be action-oriented. Have a question? Notice a problem? Discovered a mystery? Dive in and figure it out...and bring a few friends along in case you need to collaborate.

As the children of SGP work together to build a playhouse for younger kids at school, they offer critical feedback to help make the project a success.

"You can buy a good pasta, but when you cook it yourself it has another feeling." - Agnes Varda The two-year-old learners of SGP set upon a mission to make their own delicious noodles for themselves, for their friends, and to delight their families. It began with learning to read a recipe and ended with bowls full of delicious squiggles topped with rainbow sprinkles. Using Design Thinking principles, we tackled the problem of boring noodles.
