Abstract/Notes: Wherever elementary school students sprout beans, grow sugar crystals from solution, and count the number of robins in their yards, the Handbook exerts its influence. When Mario's American emissary Nancy Rambusch requested more scientific rigor in the training process, as well as other changes, Mario refused, and they parted ways in 1963 (Whitescarver & Cossentino, 2006, p. 4). Since this schism, the Early Childhood science area has not evolved much in AMS or AMI teacher education. In a widely circulated position paper, the National Science Teachers Association stated that "learning science and engineering in the early years can foster children's curiosity and enjoyment in exploring the world and lay the foundation for a progression of science learning in K-12 settings and their entire lives" (NSTA, 2014, p. 1). Adding physical science to the Early Childhood curriculum, as well as introducing engineering and technology, seems especially relevant given that: [The] National Science Foundation's Discovery Research K-12 program has begun to solicit and fund proposals to study science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) educational programs that support prekindergarten children and those who teach them.

Abstract/Notes: The young child who arrives at the conscious phase of the Absorbent Mind is primed to be an active participant in exploring the physical world. He has already created the foundations for functional human existence, and he can move and thus explore his world. He can already speak. We see his skills grow, which help him reach ever greater independence.
