Title
A Head Start on Science: Encouraging a Sense of Wonder,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
For the littlest scientists, the whole wide world can be a laboratory for learning. Nurture their natural curiosity with A Head Start on Science, a treasury of 89 handson science activities specifically for children ages 3 to 6.The activities are grouped into seven stimulating topic areas: the five senses, weather, physical science, critters, water and water mixture, seeds, and nature walks. Because the activities have been fieldtested by more than a thousand Head Start teachers over 10 years, you ll find this collection unusually easy to use in a variety of settings, including elementary schools, preK programs, and day care. In addition to clear background and a helpful materials list, you get stepbystep procedures and help preparing for comments and questions children may pose. Each activity ends with a reproducible Family Science Connection in both English and Spanish to send home so the whole family can share a learning experience that s both simple and pleasant.Thanks to a focus on the fun of exploration and discovery, children probably won t be the only ones who find these activities irresistible. As Editor Bill Ritz writes in the Introduction, We hope your own sense of wonder will be heightened as you observe children and as their curiosity leads them to answer their own questions about everything they see, hear, smell, and touch.
