Pre-K Science
Pre-K science starts with looking closely. Your child talks about what everyday things are like and what a magnet does, notices how plants and animals grow and what they need, watches the weather and the sky from day to night, and learns about rocks, sand, and water and how to take care of them.
For 4-year-olds. Questions are read aloud, answers are pictures to tap, sessions are short, and there is no clock. Pre-K follows the Texas Prekindergarten Guidelines, which come before the TEKS, and has no skills check yet.

How to help at home
Take a looking walk and ask what your child notices: a bug, a leaf, a cloud. Try a magnet on things in the kitchen and sort what sticks from what does not. Talk about the weather each morning and what to wear for it.Source: Texas Education Agency, 2022 Texas Prekindergarten Guidelines, PK4 Streamlined Version, VI (PDF).
