Age-appropriate literature is an effective way to spark curiosity and introduce new vocabulary as a starting point for outdoor exploration. The ECE Network is delighted to welcome Cheryl Potemkin, Learning Manager for Early Childhood Programs with the Fort Worth Botanic Garden, for this informative session where we will delve into nature-themed children’s books, examining them through the lens of curiosity, wonder, pre-literacy, and observation skills. The goal is to help you select the perfect book to align with your learning objectives and the age group you're working with. We'll also be doing an observation-based read-aloud!
