抄録

This study is a descriptive survey of 100 early childhood education teachers from Northern Iloilo， Philippines. It aims to identify the different STEM activities， approaches， and strategies used in teaching students in nurseries， kindergartens， and grades 1 and 2 of elementary school. The results show that coloring (books) was the top response with 100%. Art crafts and drawing received 99%. However， asking questions and inspiring thinking were below 50%. It is important to note that STEM approaches are essential in early childhood education. The study suggests that the national government should support the further integration of STEM education into the curriculum.
