Resources for supporting literacy through science exploration
Our work builds on over 20 years of previous research and development in preschool science education and professional development, beginning with a four-year grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) in 1999, when interest in preschool science was in its infancy. With this grant EDC developed and field-tested a set of curriculum guides for preschool teachers and teacher trainers, published in 2004 as the Young Scientist Series (YSS) by Redleaf Press.
