Media mention: Smagorinsky mentioned in Patch
Peter Smagorinsky, professor emeritus in the Mary Frances Early College of Education, was mentioned in a Patch article about a new permanent exhibit at the Kohl Children’s Museum in Glenview, Illinois.
The exhibit, called “The Roots of Kindness,” is aimed at children aged 2-8 and their caregivers with the goal of introducing children to concepts like generosity, gratitude, and respect through storytelling and play. The museum developed the exhibit with input from Smagorinsky and other experts in early childhood education and character development.
