STEM:IT Series

Why bring STEM into this classroom? Because it creates problem solvers! STEM stands for science, technology, engineering, and math. STEM skills allow students to identify problems and use a logical approach to find a solution. STEM is more than content; it’s a way of thinking and doing.

STEM:IT Elementary

STEM:IT Elementary is a supplementary program that uses core curriculum topics to introduce how STEM skills are needed and used in every subject. Students are also given a challenge in each lesson to utilize their problem solving skills. Each lesson includes a step-by-step guide for the teacher, cross curricular ideas, and presentations that are fun and informative. Each topic contains the lesson presentation, a coding lesson presentation that ties in with the topic and a 3D lesson presentation. Standards are listed in the Teacher’s Guide for what is covered in the lesson. All lessons are user friendly and take no extra training to teach. 

• 32 Makerspace Projects using the Engineering Design Cycle
• 28 Coding Projects
• 44 3D Print Projects
• 8 AFNR Lessons 

STEM:IT Middle School

Subject areas included in these lessons are: AFNR, social studies, English/Language arts, health, technology, science, math, engineering, art/digital art, music, business, and family and consumer science. A Teacher’s Guide, 3D presentation for each topic and a teacher resource section.  Students will briefly review a topic from potential and kinetic energy to folklore and more, at the completion of each topic, they will then be presented with a challenge to complete. Using the design cycle, students are encouraged to research a topic, make a plan to complete the challenge, engineer a device or create a presentation that meets the challenge, examine their work in order to make improvements and share their ideas.  Each STEM:IT Challenge topic also includes a 3D printing lesson that reinforces the topic.

• 26 Makerspace Projects using the Engineering Design Cycle
• 26 Career Focus Activities
• 26 3D Print Projects
  
• 6 AFNR Lessons

STEM:IT High School

The STEM:IT High School supplemental STEM curriculum provides lessons and resources to enable teachers to quickly engage students in the engineering design cycle and 3D printing lessons which support the core curriculum instruction.  STEM:IT High School includes a rich set of over 60 lessons through core subjects such as fine arts, language arts, math, science, social studies, health, and business.
