been taught as a subject in school, here at Beaconhouse,\u00a0 Bahria Enclave Campus, we encourage our students to explore the world around them by doing simple, fun and easy science projects.<\/p>\n<p>Through these projects, teachers can help guide students\u2019 natural curiosity all whilst teaching the basics of the scientific method.<\/p>\n<p>Kids love doing experiments! Science teachers know this because their students\u2019 eyes widen with excitement and their faces seem to light up whenever an experiment is mentioned. As we know, children learn better when they feel engaged and when they are using a more hands on approach.<\/p>\n<p>If you ask a child what they learned from a science textbook, they may not be able to answer you as well as they would after learning the same concept through a science experiment. So, we know that doing such experiments definitely helps foster kids\u2019 analytical skills, critical thinking and concept retention.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While science has traditionally been taught as a subject in school, here at Beaconhouse,\u00a0 Bahria Enclave Campus, we encourage our&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/hands-on-science-lessons-at-bss-bei\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Hands-on science lessons at BSS-BEI<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":351,"featured_media":126,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[59,60,58],"class_list":["post-128","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-experiments","tag-hands-on-learning","tag-science","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/128","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/351"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=128"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/128\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":130,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/128\/revisions\/130"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/126"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=128"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=128"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/358\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=128"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
