Uncovering Stem Through Play

The core knowledge today’s students need is grounded in STEM subject matter. It includes literacy,
numeracy, scientific literacy, technology literacy, and cultural literacy. 

The ‘E’ in STEM: Demystifying Engineering

Engineering happens every day in early learning environments. In this session, we will demystify
engineering by clarifying what engineering is and identifying ways engineering is naturally incorporated in the industry and play of children.

Infant and Toddler engineering

Engineering in early childhood environments is often avoided simply because we’re not very familiar with engineering. We will demystify engineering by clarifying what it is and identify ways engineering is already happening every day in infant toddler learning environments. 

Fostering Meaningful Investigations

through play and provocation

Learn how intentional investigations support mature play and children’s natural proclivity to wonder, inquire, and explore. Understand the differences between activities, explorations, and investigations and how to encourage an investigation based learning approach.

Enhancing the environment to foster engineering

The physical learning environment can greatly impact how children learn. Educators should be empowered to think of themselves as the designers of their own classrooms. 

NEW! Tinkering, Playing and Problem solving to build relationships

The teachers within your program are integral to its success. When they work cooperatively and collaboratively, the benefits are far-reaching, affecting morale, interactions with children, communication with parents, and more.

NEW! Making sense of math

It is becoming evident that mathematics is an important piece of STEM play and learning for the early childhood environment. With this, though, many educators feel intimidated with the topic of math and what facilitation of this looks like. In this session, educators will explore how mathematics assists children in making sense of their world and the various ways that educators can facilitate math through STEM exploration.
