Kindergarten Air Unit - Air Crafts





Kindergarten Science Unit - Air Around Us

Air is all around us. Can you touch it? Can you feel it? Can you see it? Air is essential for all living things to breathe, without it we can't live. Is it windy outside? The movement of air is called wind.  Who produces clean air? The trees, so the more trees the freshier the air will be. But because a lot of manufacturer's cut down trees nowadays due to production of products like paper and wood, many mountains now are bald. Some tree areas we're cleared out to build their factories, which causes air pollution.



Lets read the book: Air Is All Around You (Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science 1) by HarperCollins


We did simple experiments to show them how things move, the uses of air, the cause of air pollution and learn ways how to clean the air.
