The presenters will describe how BLOCKS teachers shared with their children the two big ideas of physical science. Part 1 will look at lessons that teach children to identify properties of matter. Part 2 will explore lessons that teach children about force and motion. The BLOCKS project teachers and staff at the University of Texas (NSF Funded) spent a year observing children as they engaged in activities in these two areas. Teachers developed a strategy for introducing and teaching these big science ideas. Video clips of the children interacting with the equipment will be shown. The teacher presenters will also offer suggestions for those who are working with Spanish speaking children. Presenters will describe the sequence of activities so that participants can learn how the activities might be used with their own students. Content knowledge will also be provided to ensure understanding of these physical science concepts by the particpants. Participants will be encouraged to share these ideas with other teachers once they have returned to their own schools. | | Times: | 8:30AM - 12:30PM | | Session Title: | Big ideas for little brains: Teaching fundamentals of physical science to 4-year-olds |

In many early childhood programs, teachers are torn between what they know about how young children learn and "preparing children for academics." Administrators and policy makers call for more testing, and parents too often believe that play doesn't result in "real" learning. However, young children need to experience concepts in order to process them -- so movement, music, and play do prepare children for later academics. They also strengthen multiple intelligences and employ multiple senses, guaranteeing that the children will enjoy and retain what they learn. When a child bangs on pots and pans, she learns about cause and effect, a science concept. A child learns more mathematics concepts from manipulating blocks and puzzle pieces than from manipulating images on a screen. When children move over, under, around, through, beside, and near objects and classmates, they better comprehend prepositions, so vital to emergent literacy and early geometry. And these are just a few examples! When teachers use activities like these in the classroom, they are teaching to the whole child, engaging the physical and social/emotional domains as well as the cognitive. This results in enduring and meaningful lessons and children who will move in leaps and bounds toward becoming lifelong learners. This presentation will offer participants many take-away ideas and a comfortable blend of theory and practice they'll find both informative and enjoyable. Most important, it will offer support to those who fear they must abandon developmentally appropriate practice in order to meet learning standards! | | Times: | 8:30AM - 9:30AM | | Session Title: | "Accountability Got You Down?

In early childhood programs, every adult needs to be ready for action in a sudden emergency or disaster. From sheltering in place to alerting local emergency managers to notifying parents of evacuation routes, the responsibilities are complicated and there is no time for review! The solution is continuous staff development that reinforces the basics and catches newer employees. This presentation demonstrates an annual series of in-service workshops on emotional resilience, safety precautions, infection control, and other important topics. | | Times: | 8:30AM - 9:30AM | | Session Title: | Disaster preparedness in a high turnover field: Continuous development for child care staff |

Attendees will actively participate in planning training and based on adult learning principles. They will develop activities to address the objectives that they have written. Thus attendees will have the opportunity in this session to practice planning based on the goals desires. As a result of attending this session, participants will be able to both explain the value of intentionality in planning and demonstrate appropriate and effective planning skills for professional development programs. As onsite technical assistance and mentoring become a larger part of services to the early childhood training field, there is not a high level of knowledge about how to go about providing such assistance as a follow-up to training. Participants in this session will learn how to provide technical assistance by engaging in role play scenarios with small groups giving feedback on appropriate responses. Through these activities, participants will be better prepared to conduct technical assistance to early childhood staff at the worksite and in a mentoring relationship. Participants will share successes in providing technical assistance in small groups. This session will be highly interactive, including an example of a planning system to address adult learning styles, small groups to begin developing a framework of a plan and to participate in role play related to technical assistance. They will create scenarios of typical areas where technical assistance is needed and work as a group to develop strategies for addressing those needs. They will leave with suggestions for how to facilitate change by developing cooperative relationships and support. | | Times: | 8:30AM - 9:30AM | | Session Title: | Professional development of early childhood staff: Planning strategies to meet your program’s goals |

If we watch young children in their natural settings we see their energy and activity levels. It is clear that their desire to move needs to be captured to teach and reinforce learning. Young children wiggle, fiddle with things, jump, and launch their bodies into endeavors. They chatter with friends and try-on new behavior. Using movement you can harness some of that energy in the service of learning skills, like counting, grouping, spelling, listening and cleaning up at the end of the day. Movement also allows children to make number, sound and word associations they would never otherwise make. It also makes things fun and fun is essential for young children in order to maintain their interest in the structured settings in which they are taught. This workshop promises to be both informative and fun. | | Times: | 8:30AM - 9:30AM | | Session Title: | Body talk: Making word, sound, and number associations through movement |

This workshop is for early childhood educators, including beginning and experienced preschool teachers, administrators, and family home child care providers who want to do science in their program. Expand the spontaneous inquiry your students engage in by using science talk to increase their wondering, asking questions, planning investigations, documenting work, thinking about what happened, and communicating their understanding. Learn how to structure investigations to encourage inquisitiveness and guide children in developing both science process skills and an understanding of specific content. Presenters “talk the talk” while you “walk the walk” by doing activities for three lessons, Bird Shape Rubbings, What Do Seeds Need, and Mixing Colors, with basic science content across all disciplines-Earth, life, and physical science-and connections to literacy and numeracy. In each lesson we do, participants are invited to be active in the hands-on investigations using materials appropriate for young children to experience how inquiry enhances thinking and learning. We will observe, predict, experiment, ask questions, classify, reproduce results to verify the nature of the material, record data, count, and discuss what we learn. Handouts for all the lessons will be provided to all participants, including lists of resources and book suggestions, sample journal, and lesson plans. Scientists ask questions, pose possible responses, test their ideas and draw personal conclusions. Teachers can engage young children in age level appropriate strategies that provide similar experiences. These experiences are fun and are the building blocks for further studies providing greater depth of understanding of the nature of science. | | Times: | 2:00PM - 3:30PM | | Session Title: | This is what young scientists can do: Engaging in and talking about hands-on inquiry activities to bring out the best thinking in your young scientists | | Book(s) Featured: | Science Is Simple |

Experience is the best teacher! Experienced early childhood professionals are often challenged by their desire to share their ideas and experience with others. This presentation brings together three top early childhood authors who will share their experiences with translating their experience into published teacher resource books and activity books for teachers. Led by an Editor-In-Chief of a major publisher of teacher resource books and materials this panel will share ideas, answer questions and take participants on a journey that begins with a single idea and ends with a published book.All three authors have published for multiple publishing companies ranging from educational publishers to textbook publishers. Two of the authors have written national curriculums for major publishing divisions. While they compare and contrast their experiences with participants, the audience will learn how to read and respond to publishing guidelines, how to pitch their ideas to an editor and how to turn their experiences into published ideas and resource materials for teachers. All three authors have been published in Young Children and have collectively written for over 15 different publishers. Both academic and non-academic publishing will be discussed. | | Times: | 2:00PM - 3:30PM | | Session Title: | How to translate your experiences with young children into published activities and resources: Expanding your leadership role |

Experience is the best teacher! Experienced early childhood professionals are often challenged by their desire to share their ideas and experience with others. This presentation brings together three top early childhood authors who will share their experiences with translating their experience into published teacher resource books and activity books for teachers. Led by an Editor-In-Chief of a major publisher of teacher resource books and materials this panel will share ideas, answer questions and take participants on a journey that begins with a single idea and ends with a published book.All three authors have published for multiple publishing companies ranging from educational publishers to textbook publishers. Two of the authors have written national curriculums for major publishing divisions. While they compare and contrast their experiences with participants, the audience will learn how to read and respond to publishing guidelines, how to pitch their ideas to an editor and how to turn their experiences into published ideas and resource materials for teachers. All three authors have been published in Young Children and have collectively written for over 15 different publishers. Both academic and non-academic publishing will be discussed. | | Times: | 2:00PM - 3:30PM | | Session Title: | How to translate your experiences with young children into published activities and resources: Expanding your leadership role |
