This article reports on a research study on Sid the Science Kid PBS television show including methods for preschool teachers to promote the inclusion of the 3E Learning Cycle and the tents of the nature of science in their preschool science education curriculum.We discussed:(a)the value of the Sid the Science Kid media tool and its relationship to the nature of science;(b)how to identify the 3E’s Learning Cycle in the Sid the Science Kid media tool.The goal of this study is to analyze if the 3E’s(Explain,Explore,Engage) are present in a television promoting inquiry for young learners.We are suggesting the Sid media tool be a model for the explicit teaching of the 3E’s and the nature of science,not behavior management.
