Using a clear instructional framework and fun lesson plans tailored for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, you’ll guide your “emerging engineers” as they explore big ideas and develop new ways of thinking through engaging and challenging learning experiences. Practical materials include classroom-tested activities that incorporate children’s books, self-reflection checklists, practical strategies and modifications, Early Childhood UDL Planning Sheets, and blank Experience Planning Templates.
Educators Will
- Introduce hands-on learning experiences that teach critical thinking skills―curiosity, persistence, flexibility, reflection, and collaboration
- Demystify and teach key phases of engineering design: think about it, try it, fix it, and share it
- Support school readiness by helping children work toward kindergarten standards, including Common Core State Standards and Next Generation Science Standards
- Use universal design for learning (UDL) principles to ensure that learning experiences work for all children, with and without disabilities
- Encourage language and literacy development with suggestions for weaving reading into problem-solving experiences and using language to prompt children’s thinking skills
- Promote other skills needed for school success, including social-emotional skills, self-regulation, and executive functioning
