TARGET AUDIENCE: PRE K - GRADE 3 EDUCATORS, COACHES AND ADMINISTRATORS ARE ENCOURAGED TO ATTEND

This professional learning session will provide Early Years and Kindergarten to Grade 3 educators opportunities to explore effective learning strategies that purposefully integrate skills and concepts in numeracy with scientific inquiries and design and build challenges (technological problem solving)

Participants will:

  • Gain hands-on experience with scientific inquiries and design and build (technological problem solving) challenges that integrate skills and numeracy in a meaningful way.
  • Learn how science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) support development of children’s communication, creative, critical thinking and collaboration skills.
  • Meet and collaborate with colleagues and engage in meaningful discussions that support program planning in early STEM education.

This learning opportunity is being offered through curriculum implementation funding from Alberta Education
