Demystifying STEM: Using what you already have
STEM education efforts seek to increase student curiosity in and engagement with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. It is a fact that science, math, technology, and engineering interrelate with each other all the time. It is difficult to teach one without involving one or more of the others. This book consists of four units with 24 STEM activities that have been developed around the student’s lifestyle and role at home, school, and in the community. For each unit, the instr

Scratch Coding Teams Planner
This is a plan that I have previously given students to begin designing and creating a program using the Scratch coding program.
I will run an immersion lesson prior to giving out this plan were I will get students to explore a game in scratch and share with the class what important features make a game or animation interesting.
The students will then use this planning document to create their own animation, game or quiz that they can share at a gamescon event at the end of a term.

STEAM with Hansel and Gretel!
This project is a great way to introduce measuring with students of all ages. You can do basic measuring with K-1 with a ruler using inches and centimeters. Then increase the expectation with 2-6 using area and perimeter. If you want, you can even include volume depending on your students. Either way you implement, it is sure to be an engaging activity that students will love!!

Rube Goldberg
This is a project outline/presentation to guide the students on following the engineering process to build a Rube Goldberg machine. Each day I assigned certain steps and gave the students time to spend on each step. We shared the research with the groups. Before students moved on they had to show me their design prototype to make sure they had at least 3 simple machines. You can increase the amount of simple machines or say at least 5 simple machines and some can be repeated.
