Wesley Prep Primer Students went Beyond the Classroom to the Children's Aquarium at Fair Park where they got to touch sting rays, see a school of fish and a star fish, watch sharks, learn about the Texas Guadalupe fish, and "Doctor" fish nibbled on their fingers! They explored the grounds around Fair Park and saw snapping turtles. It was the perfect way to complete their unit about underwater wildlife and the Texas rivers that flow into the Gulf of Mexico.

Our PreK 2.5s classes are learning how to think like scientists by participating in the Sink or Float Experiment! This type of scientific inquiry helps students understand nature, assess their surroundings, learn to question, and it teaches critical thinking! Joyful Learning equals Curious and Confident Children!

WP Toddlers created a cloud in a jar to celebrate "April Showers" and the importance of rain. It was so fun for the students to watch the blue rain coming out of the fluffy clouds. This type of lesson encourages curiosity and amazement of the world around us!

WP Fourth Graders learned about water sources in Dallas from a visiting educator from the Environmental Education Initiative this week - they studied water conservation through studying aquifers, which are underground lakes. And they made their own small aquifer to take home!

Happy Earth Day! WP students celebrated Earth Day in lots of different ways throughout the campus! Some students picked up trash, students created projects out of recyclable materials, and students also learned about types of items that can be recycled! REDUCE, RECYCLE, REUSE & REPURPOSE!

WP Second Grade's Life Cycle Lesson is still going strong with a total of 7 baby chicks! It's fun to hear the chirps throughout the hallways. Students are also entrusted with babysitting the chicks at night - it's an "around the clock" job! Hands-on Learning creates confident, curious, and caring children!
