In addition to the CW Character Trait, we also select a CW Educational Focus inspirational topic as part of our social media outreach with families to provide a well balanced foundation for each child development.
This March, in conjunction with our monthly inquiry focus, Animal Adventures, we selected the trait Science.

Scientific exploration is a very important educational element to encourage in growing children. With our month centered around animals and pets, science is an integral component of investigating and evaluating our animal friends in fun, interesting lessons and activities that will be occurring in the schools throughout March.
We have put together a list of books that each encourage scientific exploration. Click here for the full list!
