STEM Through the Months – Back to School Edition: for Budding Scientists, Engineers, Mathematicians, Makers and Poets

Now that many schools around the country have moved their start date to before Labor Day, this edition concentrates on August days.

Using monthly themed events as a springboard and the maker movement for inspiration, kids build cross-curricular connections as they explore STEM – Science, Technology, Math and Engineering.

Primarily aimed for students in grades two through grade six, these engaging lessons and projects are easily adopted and adapted for learners of all ages. The projects and poetry lessons have been classroom-tested and provide enjoyable learning experiences in a variety of learning environments: home schooling; after-school programs; scouting; gifted and talented programs; extra-curricular clubs; adult ESL classes; and senior citizen activities.
