每个孩子都是天生的“科学家”
Every child is a born scientist.
都有无限发展的可能
There are possibilities for infinite development.
我们要给孩子足够的发展空间
We need to give children enough room for development.
不要设限
Don't set limits.
而是要做好引导
Instead, we need to do a good job of guiding.
这是我们美华幼儿园steam课程的理念
This is our idea of Steam course in Meihua kindergarten.
作为幼儿园的特色课程
Characteristic courses as kindergartens
Steam课程已经有条不紊的开展了一个月
Steam's course has been running smoothly for a month.
幼儿兴趣浓厚，积极性强
Children have strong interest and enthusiasm.
期待每一周的steam课堂
Looking forward to every week's Steam class
风靡全球的STEAM教学之所以受到热捧，是由于这种新的教育理念打破了以往学科界限，鼓励孩子动手实践，自主发现，在实践中激发孩子的好奇心和求知欲，增强孩子的探索和思考能力。
The reason why STEAM teaching is popular all over the world is that this new educational concept breaks the boundaries of previous disciplines, encourages children to practice, discovers independently, stimulates children's curios/安卓ity and thirst for knowledge in practice, and enhances children's exploration and thinking ability.
STEAM：
科学（Science）
技术（Technology）
工程（Engineering）
艺术（Art）
数学（Mathematics）
STEAM 教育强调孩子要动手实践。只有孩子敢于并乐于动手实验，才能体会到科学的神奇。一旦孩子体会到这种神奇，自然就会对科学产生兴趣，对实验产生兴趣，对知识产生兴趣。
STEAM education emphasizes that children should practice. Only when children dare and are willing to experiment can they realize the magic of science. Once children realize this magic, they will naturally be interested in science, experiment and knowledge.
而这种难得的兴趣和体验是仅凭阅读科普读物换不来的。
This rare interest and experience can not be exchanged by reading popular science books.
今天，美华幼儿园就给大家介绍一个有趣的STEAM科学小实验。各位爸妈可以带着萌娃在家一起做做这些有趣的小实验，锻炼小朋友动手能力的同时，带领孩子探索科学奥秘，在孩子心中种下爱科学、爱探索的好奇种子。
Today, Meihua Kindergarten will introduce you an interesting STEAM science experiment. Parents can take Mengwa to do these interesting experiments at home, exercise children's hands-on ability, lead children to explore the mysteries of science, and plant the seeds of love for science and exploration in children's hearts.
美丽的降雨云
实验材料 Experimental materials:
一个大透明玻璃杯、几个小玻璃杯、食用色素、剃须膏、清水、一个小滴管。
实验步骤The experimental steps are as follows：
1、首先在小杯子里加清水，接着将不同颜色的色素分别倒入几个小杯子里。平均30ml水加10滴色素。水加的越少，食用色素浓度越高，云朵里的雨滴就落得越快。
2、在大玻璃杯里倒入2/3杯的清水。Pour 2/3 cups of water into a large glass.
3、将适量剃须膏倒在水面上。Pour some shaving cream on the water.
4、用吸管或针筒从小杯子里吸取不同色素，滴在大杯子的剃须膏上面。色素越靠近水面，“雨滴”就下落的越快。
Use a straw or syringe to draw different pigments from the small cup and drop them on the shaving cream of the big cup. The closer the pigments are to the surface, the faster the raindrops fall.
科学原理Scientific Principles：
其实这和降雨的原理是一样的，在这个实验中，清水就是空气，而剃须膏就是云朵，云朵里聚集了足够量的水分，就会产生降雨。
In fact, this is the same as the principle of rainfall. In this experiment, clear water is air, and shaving cream is clouds. If enough water is accumulated in clouds, it will produce rainfall.
