Early science instruction is an important component of a developmentally appropriate curriculum. Educators should offer children a variety of opportunities to explore, investigate, question, and experiment every day through intentional planning and meaningful materials. This 2 hour Zoom training provides educators with best practices in incorporating science into the classroom. Participants will learn how to create meaningful learning experiences for children in order to support their scientific reasoning skills.
