CHD 146 Math, Science, and Social Studies for Children
From completing this course, I have learned about the importance of letting children experience the basic concepts of math, science, and social studies. These content are around them and will be around them throughout their entire life, so it depends on us give them a solid foundation in their learning. As an early childhood educator, I first must have knowledge in these different content areas in order to teach children and give them a good foundation for academic subjects. My artifact from this course was a lesson Plan I created called, “Taste Me.” This was an integrated lesson plan which included math, science, and social studies content for children. In this lesson plan the child got to investigate and understand that humans have five senses. Children got use sensory descriptors to describe to which of the foods tasted like the descriptors. From completing this assignment, I have learned to apply and develop appropriate learning environments from real life and relate them to learning in math, science, and social studies concepts for children. It also helped in developing my skills in preparing and presenting math, science, and social studies concepts for preschool children.
