Having been out of the regular classroom for a few years, there was one thing that I was really looking forward to, and that was integrating STEM into my curriculum.  I’m still in the beginning stages, but I hit the ground running.  My students absolutely LOVE the activities that we have been doing for STEM!!
A majority of my students didn’t even know what an engineer was.  Also, most of my students were used to starting a task and finishing it while expecting a right or wrong answer.  So, to introduce  STEM into the classroom, I began with sharing a collection of read alouds.
Here is a list of my favorites so far.
1. Rosie Revere, Engineer by Andrea Beaty
2. Â Ada Twist, Scientist by Andrea Beaty
3. Â The Most Magnificent Thing by Ashley Spires
4. Â Violet the Pilot by Steve Breen
5. Â What Do You Do With a Problem by Kobi Yamada
As my journey with STEM continues, I’m sure my reading collection will too! 🙂
