Ideas and Innovations In Early Childhood Education and Care is a think tank based in Watertown Massachusetts founded by Theodore (Teddy) Kokoros in 2018. All researchers and contributors to Ideas and Innovations In Early Childhood Education and Care are either teachers or parents of young children. While early childhood education and care is getting more attention from politicians and the media, too often those shaping policy and discussions related to early childhood education and care are not the people who are more directly involved with the work. This think tank’s goal is to share the research and perspectives of people who work directly with young children.
Here is a quick and easy lesson plan idea for election day with Preschool, PreK, and Kindergarten students. Start a discussion about elections by reading a book like “If I Ran For President” “Grace for President”, or “Election Day.” Then ask the children what they would tell voters they would do, if people voted for them and write down what they say.
