Meaningful STEM Education
Success in STEM related fields, both in higher education and future careers, is dependent on developing student interest and aptitude in STEM as early as possible. Establishing meaningful STEM education in your elementary classroom starts with integrating concepts into your lesson plans.
Change your lesson plan vocabulary.
Using words like "experiment", "model" and "design" allow your students to experience learning in a STEM-centric environment. These changes in vocabulary serve as building blocks for higher education.
Make real connections.
By focusing on simple machines at first and moving towards more complex technology in STEM II, these sets allow students to identify STEM concepts in action throughout the world around them. This real-world association will help them retain and apply the principles of what they learn.
