Making sure students have direction and a goal when implementing STEM or STEAM lessons in the classroom is crucial for their success and your sanity. While covering a multitude of standards in science, math, history, or reading you might also want to have your students keep in mind the aspect of STEM or STEAM while conducting research or creating a product.

This resource offers several STEM learning goals dealing with careers, background knowledge, supplies, using tools, communication, and leadership in STEM. Each goal is offered in color, black and white, and with a special version with added clip art. As you include science, technology, engineering, art and math to your regular lessons I hope these learning goals help your students identify their targets for your lesson.

Please let me know if you have any questions!
