Excited to have presented with rebecca andrews today at the #manswprek8 conference. We represented preschool - reflecting on our ‘maths in preschool’ action research journey.
THIS ⬇️!! Nobel Prize Winner Prof. James Heckman argued for this 23 years ago! Investing in the first 1000-2000 days of life has power to solve social and economic crises. Invest in the early and equal dev't of ch'n. Early investment produces the greatest returns in human capital.
I visited John Brotchie Nursery School, the only stand-alone NSW Dept of Education preschool, & saw students explore a range of different concepts in small supported groups & independently. Well done to Rebecca Andrews & staff for leading & creating a high quality service for students.
