Oct: Early STEM Learning in Library Programs for Young Children (Texas State Library & Archives Commission)

October 24 (11:30am-1pm PST)

The second Webinar in our Early Literacy In Your Library series, this session will introduce literature-based math and science activities for librarians to include in storytime programs for preschool children. Children have a natural curiosity and librarians need only give them a chance to ask questions, explore, look for answers, and talk about their experience. The engaging activities are aligned with educational standards and will assist libraries in implementing the 10 Key Ways that libraries can improve early learning outcomes, in particular, “Supporting development of executive function and ‘deeper learning’ skills through literacy and STEM-based experiences.”
