The Learning Triangle
The Learning Triangle emerged in 2012 while preparing a group of students for a Grade 4 state Science Test. Although the students were familiar with the scientific concepts, classroom time restrictions limited the students' exposure to hands-on scientific exploration. To compensate for such limitations, a kit of materials was issued to each student. The kit included scientific equipment, and STEM, ELA, and Social Studies activities. Parents were invited to partner with the students in scientific experimentation at home. Teacher, Parent, and Student embarked on an inter-disciplinary journey that fostered growth in STEM, ELA, and Social Studies skills.
Building on the success of the Grade 4 program, The Learning Triangle approach was extended to include students in Grade K through 3. This current approach can be modified to match the ability of the student, the learning environment, and the support personnel.
The Learning Triangle Approach
Learners from grades Kindergarten to Third Grade follow the path of Scientific Exploration as originally defined by Galileo. Galileo’s greatest contribution to the Fundamentals of Discovery was to direct scientists down a path of pure observation. An observed phenomenon prompts a “Why” question, that in turn promotes the development of a hypothesis. Keen observation, disciplined documentation, and rational deduction encourages innately curious thinkers to become life-long learners.
Going The Extra Mile
Integrated into the explorations are biographies of famous scientists, beginning with Galileo in 1564 and spanning five centuries to Jane Goodall in the 21st century. Other featured scientists include Torricelli, Newton, Faraday, Anning, Carver, Einstein, Hubble, and Carson. The biographies trace the lives of these individuals from curious child to renowned scientist. Learners establish their place on the timeline of discovery along with these men and women of the scientific community from across the globe.
