Getting Started
To prepare teachers for success,
each Teaching Guide provides
Containers Planning for the Study
an implementation checklist and
additional support resources.
Implementing This Teaching Guide
Look at the web of investigations in this Teaching Guide. During each
investigation, consider the following questions:
How do the containers you will include in your study reflect the diversity in your
classroom?
How can you invite families to support children’s investigations?
How can you adapt the investigations to reflect your school and community?
Embedded Implementation
Support: Receive comprehensive
support and next steps for
effectively implementing a study.
Review the “Types of Containers” list (p. 7) and begin gathering
containers for your classroom collection.
Modify as needed and then send home the Letter to Families to
introduce the upcoming study to families and encourage their
involvement.
Review the At-a-Glance pages.
Pull and review the Daily Resources.

Gather materials, such as specific containers, that you will need for the children’s
explorations and investigations.
Add additional materials in response to children’s interests and current
developmental needs.
Organize the materials that you will need each day. Tip: Some teachers have found it
easiest to organize the materials needed for each day in different buckets or a five-drawer
organizer.
