Describes how children develop spatial thinking skills and how educators can support young children’s spatial thinking, using the M5 Early Math Approach.

Suite Resources At-A-Glance

This suite contains:

  • Introductory resources: describe children’s development in spatial thinking broadly across birth to 8 years.
  • Age-specific resources: offer information on how children develop spatial thinking skills and ways educators can promote children’s learning in three age groups:
    • Infants and Toddlers
    • Preschool, Transitional Kindergarten (TK), and Kindergarten (K)

You may start with the introductory resources or use them in combination with one or more of the age-specific resources, based on your participants’ needs.
