The Peep and the Big Wide World website now features a series of professional development videos for early childhood educators based in centers and home-based family childcare.  These videos look at each of the six Peep science themes – Color, Sound, Plants, Shadows, Balls/Ramps, and Water — and show educators modeling the following four sets of teaching strategies for each unit.

1. Science Talk
2. Individualized Instruction
3. Learning Environment
4. Documentation & Reflection

Since 2002 I have worked on the live action segments for the TV show, and had the privilege of working with WGBH on the production of this new professional development series.   Enjoy and please share!  Scroll down for sharing buttons on this post.
