Paper details:
Assignment – STEAM Education for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers As early childhood educators, we work with children from infancy through preschool. As a result, it is important to understand the different needs of children at various stages of development. First, read the following: • Chapter 11 Mathematics for Early Childhood Education (Mathematics for Early Childhood Education | Handbook of Research on the Education of Young Children – Credo Reference (oclc.org)) • Chapter 12 Science Education in the Early Years (Science Education in the Early Years | Handbook of Research on the Education of Young Children – Credo Reference (oclc.org)) McManis, L. D., & Gunnewig, S. B. (2012). Finding the education in educational technology with early learners. YC: Young Children, 67(3), 14-24. Practically all the library readings referenced by the SME are from the journal, YC: Young Children.(file attached) Then, for your assignment this week, develop an 8 to 10 slide presentation that addresses the following: • One slide that discusses some of the key cognitive developmental differences between infants, toddlers, and preschoolers • One to two slides that discuss the differences considerations for teaching science to infants, toddlers, and preschoolers • One to two slides that discuss the differences considerations for using technology tools with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers • One to two slides that discuss the differences considerations for teaching math to infants, toddlers, and preschoolers • One slide that explains how you will integrate developmentally appropriate art activities into your instruction Your Assignment – STEAM Education for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers should be 8 to 10 slides in length. Be sure to proofread and submit with a title slide, reference slide, and APA format. Support the ideas in your presentatiagnon with at least two references
