What does STEM in preschool look like? It’s something you already do every day

For many early childhood educators and teachers, the increasing emphasis on STEM education can perhaps feel a bit daunting.

What we do know is STEM education is happening in centres every day, – you might just call it something different. Sorting objects, making patterns, describing position, water, or block play. They’re all part of STEM teaching moments.

In this 30-minute webinar, we’ll talk about STEM and discover how many of the everyday activities you do in your centre are already STEM-based.

You’ll learn:

 

• Why STEM education is important in preschool
• What it looks like in a preschool setting
• Examples of minor adjustments you can do to your existing activities to make them more STEM focussed

 

We’ll spend the last 10 minutes of the webinar taking any questions you have.

 

This is a free webinar brought to you by Early Learning STEM Australia (ELSA) and a specialist education team from the STEM Education Research Centre (SERC) at the University of Canberra.
