Everyone wants to be part of the solution and young children especially value opportunities to help the world in authentic ways. Combine very local ecology action with global awareness and problem solving through an integrated science unit designed for early childhood education. This session demonstrates a simple, practical approach to add a Global Stewardship strand to the ECE curriculum, centering on classroom composting and gardening, linking inquiry science, math, and social studies while connecting to the larger community. Young children build basic concepts of ecology, sustainability, and limiting factors in earth biosystems, preparing them to help preserve our planet.
