• Summary:This book guides and inspires K'5 educators through a seamless process of designing and implementing STEAM inquiries that align carefully to key mathematics and science content and practices. Taking an opposite approach to existing resources that provide collections of disjointed STEAM activities, this book empowers teachers and schools to build cohesive and sustainable STEAM infrastructures, grounded in grade-level standards and purposeful assessment to deepen the mathematics and science learning of each and every student. STEAM instruction is for each and every student; STEAM instruction is about mathematics; and STEAM instruction can and should be implemented for student success and to engage students in making their community and our world a better place. Loaded with resources to help K'5 teachers and instructional leaders develop, implement, and assess meaningful STEAM inquiries, this research-based book: Provides practical, on-the-go resources to help busy teachers get started in creating purpose-driven STEAM instruction Allows educators to interact deeply with the content and create equitable STEAM experiences that blend community and societal interests Includes online companion printable resources to help educators jumpstart or deepen STEAM learning throughout a school or district, supporting STEAM professional development, professional learning communities, and book studies Checklists, pictures, graphic organizers, reflection questions, "Try it Out!" sections, and example STEAM inquiries help teachers seamlessly connect multiple subject areas, create transformative learning experiences, engage elementary students in developing creativity and empathy, and enable students to solve meaningful and authentic problems for others, all to prepare students for their bright futures. Make the most of your limited instructional time and become part of the Step into STEAM movement!
