Lindell Elementary School Pre-K in Long Beach recently kicked off its Museum Unit with an engaging and interactive launch event that invited students to explore, imagine, and discover. 

During the kickoff, students participated in a “book tasting” and rotated through hands-on learning stations designed to introduce the key themes of the unit. Throughout the event, students enjoyed a shared read-aloud, explored fairy tale puzzles, learned about dinosaurs, and built castles using a variety of materials. These activities encouraged creativity, collaboration, and curiosity while laying the foundation for deeper learning.

Later in March, The Museum Unit will culminate in a student created MOLA, Museum of Learning Activities and a museum showcasing students’ work and discoveries.
