Reviews

Exploring Math and Science in Preschool听takes a familiar preschool activity and shows us how to build on it, describing in detail additional activities and strategies to enhance children鈥檚 understanding. The numerous photographs make children鈥檚 thinking visible and offer many examples of children engaging in mathematical thinking and science explorations.

Use the information in this book to transform what appear to be simple classroom activities into opportunities for rich experiences that result in complex and meaningful learning.
鈥�Christina Sales, Author of听Ramps & Pathways: A Constructivist Approach to Physics With Young Children听
听
The math articles in this book include science concepts and ideas, and the science articles include math concepts and ideas. In addition, language, vocabulary, and books are integrated into almost every article鈥攋ust as it should be! I will add this book to my library, and I anticipate using it often.
