The Creative Curriculum Study Starters: Volume 1
This valuable new science and social studies resource is a series of step-by-step guides on developing studies about real-life topics that spark children's curiosity. Study Starters begin with topics that children want to explore--boxes, rocks, ants, clothes, flowers, buildings--and help you identify children's questions, learn background information and vocabulary, organize and plan the environment, facilitate investigations, incorporate content skills and knowledge, and involve families.
When you purchase the complete set you receive a free Teacher's Guide and full-color binder to store the Study Starters and your notes.

Boxes
|
Boxes come in all shapes and sizes. They store food and gifts and make great play spaces. A study of boxes is a way to learn about how goods are transported and to examine the physical properties of objects. |
|
Rocks
|
As children explore rocks, they will learn about the different types of rocks, their physical properties, and the ways in which rocks are used in everyday life.
|
|
Ants
|
Ants are endlessly fascinating to young children. An organized study offers opportunities to study important life science concepts and social studies concepts related to location, maps, and people and the environment. |
|
Clothes
|
Children's interest in clothes can be the foundation for learning about different kinds of clothes, the fabric clothes are made from, the processes of making and selling clothes, the specialized purposes of some clothes, and how clothes have changed over time.
|
|
Flowers
|
A study of flowers encourages children's interest in the natural world. Through investigations, conversations and questions, they will learn about living and nonliving things, how living things grow and change, and the cycle of growth. They will learn about jobs and transportation as they explore where flowers are sold and how they are used.
|
|
Buildings
|
A study of buildings offers opportunities to explore physical science and social studies concepts about jobs and the purposes of different structures.
