Little Scientists Australia is a nation-wide accelerator program for preschool teachers wanting to make STEM shine for early learners. Funded by the Australian Federal Government and supported by PwC, the Little Scientists team is helping prepare young minds by building capacity. “Am I actually looking at the world with open eyes? How many questions do I have about the world on a regular basis? From our perspective this is the foundation… the more curious I am as an educator, the more exciting discoveries I can make with my children”. Sibylle Seidler After chatting with Sibylle Seidler and Heike Schneider from Little Scientists Australia, we also look at easy ways you can run science lessons for toddlers plus we revisit a grab from a past episode in which Adam Selinger from the Childrens Discovery Center discusses why modelling mistakes, failure and omissions can be a trigger for deeper learning in hands-on science lessons.
