Back to School (STEMIE - STEM Innovation for Inclusion in Early Education)

Description:

It’s back to school time for many children, families, faculty, and early childhood professionals. Many children - and adults - find the start of the school year to be nerve wracking as we figure out new routines and make new friends amongst many other new experiences. We have just the resources for you from STEMIE and from other partners.

Having predictable, comprehensible routines is one of the key ingredients to successful inclusion. The National Center for Pyramid Model Innovations (NCPMI) has a series of scripted stories in multiple languages focused on helping children understand expectations and rules associated with going to school and learning about potential unfamiliar experiences and interactions when starting preschool.
