Inspiring Innovation and Creativity in Young Learners - by Allison Bemiss (Paperback)

Inspiring Innovation and Creativity in Young Learners helps teachers and other educational stakeholders to promote innovative thinking in children in Pre-K through grade 3. This book:

• Shares six easy steps that teachers can take to transform the learning experience.
• Encourages critical and creative thinking in students.
• Features specific strategies, organizers, and thinking starters (or curiosity catchphrases).
• Includes easy-to-implement STEAM mini-lessons.
• Addresses growth mindset, building empathy, making inferences, curiosity, developing meaningful connections with previous learning, self-reflection, and revision.

When we imagine young children becoming the innovators of the future, we envision them conducting science experiments to cure diseases, writing the next great novel, or creating a revolutionary digital tool that brings the world together. This book helps our youngest learners bridge the gap from play-based learning to innovation.
