Students learn simple food chains: sun and plants start the chain, plant-eaters and meat-eaters form links, and energy moves from one living thing to the next.

Students practice an intro engineering process—ask about a problem, imagine ideas, build and test a model, then improve—using classroom design challenges.

Students explore objects in the sky—sun, moon, stars, and clouds—learn simple day/night ideas, and practice safe observation and pattern noticing.

Students learn the three Rs—reduce, reuse, recycle—practice sorting and litter awareness, and connect small daily choices to caring for Earth.

Prongo-owned

Students explore everyday habits—washing, sleep, water, movement, and kindness—that support body and mind.
