Preschoolers like to investigate! They enjoy learning about the world around them. The Project Approach involves children in studies of the world around them.
Scenario: You are a three-year-old preschool teacher. As a preschool teacher, you have noticed an increased need to create a multicultural and linguistically responsive classroom for your children. For this assignment, you will research how teachers create a multicultural classroom and prepare a lesson that you would teach 3 and 4 year old children about culture. You may use learning centers in your description of the assignment. For instance, you want to teach the children about cultural foods from around the world. You will type out your lesson to include learning objectives, materials, purpose of the lesson, directions to complete the activity, and an assessment at the end.
The assignment must be typed in Microsoft Word and uploaded as a word document of PDF file.
