At St. Francis Xavier, we follow the NYC DOE 3-K curriculum which includes three explorations.  These three explorations are 
Our Community, Our Environment, and Our Impact. 

This month we begin our second exploration - Our Environment. This exploration is designed to be implemented over the course of about four months.  

In month one, we begin by encouraging the children to observe the world around them, noting what they see in their environment. 

In month two, the children are encouraged to build on their observations and begin to think critically about things around them. In this month, we encourage the children to make predictions, test hypotheses, and make and share conclusions. 

In month three, the children are encouraged to observe and investigate the building and structures around them. 

In month four, the children examine and explore objects in their environment that move.  

During this exploration, the children will show growth in their abilities to observe and describe observable phenomena such as objects, materials, organisms, and events.  The children will show growth in their ability to make observations, analyze results, draw conclusions and communicate results. They will also show growth in their ability to put materials together and describe buildings and tools.  Finally, the children will show growth in their ability to demonstrate and dscribe how things move.  

In 3-k, learning with each other through play helps support children's social and emotional development, language and literacy, cognition and even their physical development.
