Math and Science for Young Children

Beschreibung

Howard/Charlesworth's MATH AND SCIENCE FOR YOUNG CHILDREN, 9th EDITION, introduces you to engaging math and science experiences for early childhood and early elementary education programs. It provides an organized, sequential approach to creating a developmentally appropriate STEM curriculum. The content aligns with key guidelines and standards, including The National Association for the Education of Young Children's (NAEYC) Professional Standards and Competencies (2020); Developmentally Appropriate Practice (DAP) guidelines (2021); Common Core Mathematics Standards; and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). This edition also addresses STEM/STEAM and the essential domains of child growth and development during the crucial birth-through-eight age range. A valuable resource for the student/future teacher, working professional or involved parent, this edition emphasizes the interrelatedness of STEM content and how the content can be integrated into all other curriculum areas.
