When young children first arrive at school, they generally know how
to use a mobile phone and a tablet, and how to count, share and
measure. They have a sense of wonder about the world around them.
They expect to further interact with technology and to build and
extend their mathematics and science knowledge.Teaching Early Years
Mathematics, Science and ICT shows how teachers of children in
their first three years of formal schooling can guide students in
developing a sound understanding of the key concepts in mathematics
and science in classroom and field activities. It shows how to
select appropriate educational technology, and effectively and
routinely integrate it into the learning experience, as part of
students' wider classroom learning.Throughout, the authors make
connections between children's out-of-school and in-school
experiences, as well as connections across key learning areas. They
provide real classroom examples of learning experiences which can
be adapted for different year levels. A reflection template assists
teachers in planning and successfully implementing teaching
strategies to meet curriculum requirements.Teaching Early Years
Mathematics, Science and ICT helps teachers bridge theory and
practice in teaching children aged 5 to 8 years.

Phineas Gage was truly a man with a hole in his head. Phineas, a
railroad construction foreman, was blasting rock near Cavendish,
Vermont, in 1848 when a thirteen-pound iron rod was shot through
his brain. Miraculously, he survived to live another eleven years
and become a textbook case in brain science.
At the time, Phineas Gage seemed to completely recover from his
accident. He could walk, talk, work, and travel, but he was
changed. Gage "was no longer Gage," said his Vermont doctor,
meaning that the old Phineas was dependable and well liked, and the
new Phineas was crude and unpredictable.
His case astonished doctors in his day and still fascinates
doctors today. What happened and what didn't happen inside the
brain of Phineas Gage will tell you a lot about how your brain
works and how you act human.
