Whole Body Science-STEM Ideas for Young Children on the Move
May 3, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Do you have active children? Then this workshop is for you!
Everything is science, so while you won’t need any new materials, Whole Body Science provides a new lens to look through when trying to engage those “whole body learners”. This workshop is for providers who don’t have a STEM background and who have very physically active children, or even children who aren’t interested in the typical “sit-down” science activities. In this interactive workshop, providers will:
- Observe examples of how to identify and provide STEM opportunities through engaging the body and active, hands-on play
- Reflect and strategize on supervision and workflow
- Learn how STEAM supports Whole Body Science
- Foster developmentally-appropriate ways for children who crave power, consent and peer connection
- How to use inquiry and improvisation to support STEM engagement
- How to connect Whole Body Science to the DRDP
This class is facilitated by Solitaire Miguel.
