Kindergarten wanted you to "Pick up your TRASH!"

Kindergarten Presents to you "Pick Up Your Trash" An EPIC Celebration of Earth Day. Kindergarten wants you to spread the word on Keeping our Earth clean by picking up your trash!!

Discovery Science Explosion

On Friday, March 27, TCS hosted the Discovery Science Explosion, in partnership with the Atlanta Science Festival. STEM [Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Education] collided with the arts on the TCS campus, where students participated in science experiments, project-based engineering opportunities, and other learning initiatives created and facilitated by our Discovery students and teachers. It was truly an EPIC afternoon of fun!

End of the year Block Party! Discovery 2014

Tinker Tinker Tell A Story This year's Discovery Block Party had our kids taking everything a part and putting it back together. For the last few weeks our children divulged their imaginations to piece together stories from non-veggie eating zombies to bees building a hive. Their stories included wacky pictures and props constructed from the ground up to bring their stories to life. Stories weren't the only thing being constructed. Check out our kids breaking down and building up new structures with legos, Styrofoam planes, and more. They also enjoyed tearing apart old computers and more to see what makes them tick.

Simple Machines with ECEP!

From the mind to the paper to the hands the innovative minds of Discovery present the Simple Machines showcase. Each grade in discovery learned about the fundamentals of simple machines that we use on a daily basis to make life easier. From that grew some ‘concept machines’ that we are all familiar with even an injured bear named Carl. Last Friday Discovery celebrated their inventions in a bustling gym showing off what they learned. Check out what types of conductive concept machines were made to make everyone’s life better!

We never know what the future holds with technology evolving at the speed of light and green energy slowly taking over the globe. How will we live in the next 10-100 years. Perhaps non-degradable marshmallow homes? Every Discovery class constructed homes made from popsicle sticks, marshmallows and some even created an entire model home complete with grass. This project got our students some literal hands on experience with 'raw materials' combined with creativity to design a home. Now let's see what they can come up with for inside a home...

The Gift - from Kindergarten.

Our Kindergarten class topped of the 2013 school year in song as parents, teachers, and students sang and danced right before winter break. The outdoor concert was well attended and filled with the joys of parents and children singing along to songs that the class had learned. You can check out how in tune our parents and students were in this clip.

Run run run as fast as you can, you can't catch them their the PP/PK Class! Gingerbread men were brought to life with the colorful decorations by the Pre-Primary and Pre-K class. They mixed up the batter, threw on the icing, and gave their personal touch to each gingerbread man. Followed by a rousing amount of smiles and silly faces.
