Riassunto

What if we raise the bar on early learning?

School readiness, closing achievement gaps, partnering with families, and innovative learning are just a few of the reasons the early learning years are the most critical years in a child’s life. In what ways have schools lost the critical components of early learning -- teaching preschool through third grade -- and how can we intentionally bring those ideas and instructional strategies back?

In Hacking Early Learning, Kindergarten school leader, early childhood education specialist, and Minnesota State Principal of the Year Jessica Cabeen provides strategies for teachers, principals, and district administrators in best practices for preschool teachers and leaders, kindergarten teachers, teaching first grade, teaching second grade, and teaching third grade, including connecting these strategies to all grade levels.

It's What You Can Do Tomorrow

Using the popular Hack Learning Series problem-solving formula, Cabeen brings educators a simple guide for making the early years more meaningful, engaging, and full of intentional learning experiences. Cabeen shows all stakeholders how to:

• Create learning environments that are conducive to play, technology integration, and movement
• Provide a clear understanding for ALL staff members of what we want students to learn
• Give parents detailed, timely information about what their children are learning and how they can support teachers and learners at home
• Bridge the gap between early learning and K-12
• Create innovative professional growth for pre-K-3 educators
• Grant access to research-based practices and give teachers time to reflect on their teaching with others, in order to learn the best strategies for ALL children -- Pre-K-3 and beyond -- to succeed
