en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2018
Early childhood teachers continue to seek activities that promote STEM-based learning. But most STEM books focus on science and math, excluding technology and engineering. Creative Investigations in Early Engineering and Technology helps teachers create a more well-rounded STEM learning program.
  • Encourage children to think, make, tinker and innovate
  • Introduce engineering skills such as coding in a developmentally appropriate way
  • Leverage children's use of digital technologies to help them learn new skills
  • Promote active engagement and participation in classroom learning

Creative Investigations in Early Engineering and Technology
by Angela Eckhoff

Explore, think creatively, build, solve problems...
STEM learning is so important for today's young learners. Creative Investigations in Early Engineering and Technology, a follow-up to Creative Investigations in Early Math, will help you guide your preschoolers' learning as they build structures using basic architectural concepts, learn about computers and the technology behind machines, and so much more. Instead of teaching engineering and technology to preschoolers, you can be their guide as they research, experiment, and investigate in their day-to-day learning.
Teachers will learn practical ideas for intentionally fostering young children's hands-on explorations in the following areas:
  • Design concepts
  • Force and motion
  • Computer coding
  • Recording observations
  • Understanding measurements
Students will love to learn as they explore on their own and collaboratively to learn about how and why our world works.
