DEVELOPMENTAL PROJECTS
Assume that you are a PreK- 2 Elementary principal in your school district. Your Superintendent wants to know more about the PreK- 2 Elementary context in the district and what students should be able to do developmentally at this age. She wants to be able to share what she learns from you with parents. The Superintendent asked you to create a full report on child development at the PreK- 2 Elementary level that she can read. She also wants you to create a number of separate products (print, media, and/or combination) that she can share
publicly with the school board, parents, and newly hired PreK- 2 Elementary teachers. Your focus for this project will be on Pre-K - 2nd grade - just the early grades. Also, you must include literacy/reading support at that developmental age. |
