Science At TECC
The Trinity Episcopal Children’s
Center Science Program is designed to seek out the sense of wonder and curiosity in each
child. Through interactive teaching and hands-on experiments, the children will expand their cognitive abilities
and learn to question the world around them.
The children will be encouraged and learn how to make a hypothesis, follow
step-by-step directions, experiment, problem solve, and work together as a team to make the most of every learning
opportunity.
Our goal is to build the foundation for each child to have continued enthusiasm
and interest in science as they matriculate on to others schools and are exposed to different science
