Hey I’m Meg!
A former Kindergarten Teacher turned Middle School Science Educator; I’m passionate about creating opportunities of growth through STEM Education.
I empower elementary teachers with the engineering design process, so that their students can apply researched scientific knowledge towards the solution of technical problems.
I believe STEM should be integrated into all subjects and cover more than just science skills and standards.
Take a peek at my favorite STEM Activities that use the Next Generation Science Standards
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the Next Generation science standards?
What does STEM teach our students?
What type of materials do i need for stem activities?
Why is stem important?
How can i make stem a priority in my Daily schedule?
If your school is anything like mine (speaking of when I was in Kindergarten), there wasn’t a lot of time for science/social studies in the curriculum. If you’re like me, I had to build STEM into other subjects like math (carrying out investigations with measurements) or reading (picture books with an engineering problem to fix after we finished reading). In this way, I was able to develop the important science and engineering processes into other subject matter.
How Should I organize my stem materials?
