About

Building a solid foundation in science and engineering in preschool through elementary grades not only enhances and sustains children’s’ natural curiosity for science and engineer, but also sets them up for later success by establishing the knowledge and skills that are needed for challenging topics introduced in last grades.

Join the Board on Science Education on September 15th from 9:00 am – 3:00 pm in Washington, DC for a public event to discuss the recent report Science and Engineering in Preschool Through Elementary Grades: The Brilliance of Children and the Strengths of Educators. The event will feature conversations with different stakeholders who are faced with ensuring the children have access to science and engineering in preschool through elementary grades. Moderated panel discussions will focus on specific recommendations from the report with respect to how to prioritize science and engineering in these early grades and how to build capacity through the preparation of educators and leaders.

About

From a young age, children explore their world by asking questions and using creative ways to find out more about it. This curiosity and enthusiasm for learning can set the state as children enter into formal schooling. However, many preschool and elementary classrooms provide only limited opportunities to engage in science and engineering learning. Additional demands on preschool through elementary educators include needing to place an emphasis on English language arts and mathematics, limited backgrounds in science and engineering, limited professional learning opportunities, as well as a lack of time, space, and resources. A report produced by the Board on Science Education of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine titled Science and Engineering in Preschool Through Elementary Grades: The Brilliance of Children and the Strengths of Educators takes up these issues and offers up guidance on how to address them. Members of the committee, who wrote the report, will give an overview of the key issues, conclusions, and recommendations.

Speakers:

Elizabeth A. Davis, University of Michigan

Megan Hopkins, University of California, San Diego
