- Observes the different states of water (solid, liquid, gas) by pouring water from a cup into a basin.
- Experiences the concept of buoyancy as they float different objects in the water.
- Discovers that water can take the shape of the container it is in.
- Notices that water can be transparent and allows visibility.
- Understands that water can be used to clean objects as they wash toys or their hands.
- Recognizes that water is necessary for plants to grow as they water a small plant.
- Discusses how water can change temperature by feeling the cold water from the tap or adding hot water to the basin.
- Uses trial and error to understand the concept of sink or float by trying different objects in the water.
Continued development: Encourage the child to experiment with different objects and materials in water, discussing their observations and findings. Introduce concepts such as water pollution and conservation through simple activities or discussions. Explore the water cycle and how water moves through different states. Provide opportunities for water play in different environments, such as the beach or a swimming pool, to further expand their understanding of water properties.
