 Early Educators: FREE
Math Course
In preschool, math is
everywhere, and it's integral to learning. All early childhood educators are invited to join the Sesame
Street friends in an interactive course covering math and pretend play. Learners will explore the ways babies and toddlers build a foundation for math, and review key math objectives for children ages 2–5.
This self-paced
course runs from May 8 – August 11, so educators can complete the course at
their convenience.
