Does Physics Perform Better in Preschools’ Education of Science

Abstract

Research on preschools’ science education had a long history. However, few studies have drawn upon appropriate activities to frame their research. This essay considers the question of how to select appropriate activities to help children understand science concepts, i.e., initial consideration of reasons and six assertions supporting the idea of physics. These are, in order: (1) Children naturally focus on physical property of objects. (2) Physical Experiments meet criteria for selecting appropriate activities. (3) It is the most popular in the actual teaching activities and various type of theoretical study on child science. Concrete illustrations of the ideas were discussed in this essay.
