Hauv kev teb rau qhov kev tsis txaus siab ntawm cov lag luam zov me nyuam, Washington STEM tau tsim ib qho tshiab Kev Ua Lag Luam Saib Xyuas Me Nyuam Ua Lag Luam Ua Lag Luam Ua Lag Luam ("tus kwv yees", kuj muaj nyob rau hauv Mev) tsim los pab cov tswv lag luam zov me nyuam muaj peev xwm nkag siab txog cov nqi, cov nyiaj tau los, thiab muaj peev xwm ua tau rau lawv lub tswv yim kev lag luam zov me nyuam, thiab pab lawv ua tiav thiab txhim kho kev nkag mus rau kev zov me nyuam hauv Washington State.
Tus "Estimator" xyaum ua tus nqi tiag tiag
Washington STEM ua haujlwm hauv kev kawm ntawm "qib kab ke", uas txhais tau tias peb saib seb kev nqis peev hauv cov tsev kawm ntawv cuam tshuam li cas rau cov tub ntxhais kawm. Peb paub tias muaj kev nkag mus rau kev kawm thaum ntxov thiab kev saib xyuas zoo yog lub hauv paus tseem ceeb rau kev kawm tau zoo yav tom ntej. Txawm li cas los xij, ib feem peb ntawm cov menyuam yaus hauv Washington tsis npaj ua lej thaum lawv mus rau qib kindergarten, thiab lawv poob qis dua hauv tsev kawm ntawv txhua xyoo. Txhawm rau hloov cov txiaj ntsig no, txhua tus menyuam yuav tsum tau nkag mus rau kev kawm thaum ntxov.
Nyob rau lub caij ntuj sov xyoo 2022, Washington STEM tau koom tes nrog Lub Tsev Haujlwm Saib Xyuas Kev Lag Luam los tsim lub tswv yim pib ntawm lub lag luam saib xyuas menyuam yaus ua tau lub laij lej suav nrog cov ntaub ntawv tshwj xeeb hauv nroog los ntawm cov koom haum hauv xeev. Dr. Soleil Boyd, PhD yog Senior Program Officer rau Early Learning & Care ntawm Washington STEM. Nws hais tias, "Txhua tus menyuam hauv Washington State tsim nyog tau txais kev saib xyuas menyuam yaus zoo. Tus Estimator suav nrog suav rau tus naj npawb ntawm cov menyuam yaus, tus nqi kawm ntawv, kev tuav pov hwm thiab cov nqi kawm ntawv. Nws kuj suav nrog cov nqi rau "kev ua tau zoo", uas suav nrog cov peev txheej rau kev txhim kho cov neeg ua haujlwm thiab lub sijhawm rau kev npaj thiab kev sib tham niam txiv-tus kws qhia ntawv, nrog rau cov khoom siv rau cov menyuam yaus uas xav tau tshwj xeeb.

Tsis yog tsuas yog cov lag luam saib xyuas me nyuam tshiab muaj peev xwm muaj txoj hauv kev zoo tshaj plaws kom muaj sia nyob - tab sis kuj tseem qhia txog qhov tsis sib xws hauv kev lag luam, qhov kev nqis peev ntau ntxiv ntawm lub xeev thiab siab dua tuaj yeem pab ua lag luam ntau dua. "
Marie Keller yog Tus Thawj Saib Xyuas Kev Loj Hlob thiab Kev Loj Hlob ntawm Xav txog lub koom haum, ib lub koom haum uas txhawb nqa kev lag luam zov me nyuam nrog kev txhim kho kev ua haujlwm. Nws hais tias, "Yuav kom ua lag luam saib xyuas menyuam tau zoo txhais tau tias kov yeej ntau yam kev nyuaj.
