Original Prompti would like to create a brochure/pamphlet for parent night at my school explaining the lower school STEM curriculum for the parents. I would like to include what the students have learned so far about senses (3 year old through kindergartners) observations and inferences (1st through 5th garde) and scientific method (3rd through 5th grade). The students will finish unit 1 by conducting experiments through the scientific method and then using the engineering process to complete a STEM challenge....
This document provides an overview of the STEM education curriculum for young learners at a school, emphasizing exploration and discovery through science. It outlines the philosophy of viewing every child as a natural scientist, using resources like Discovery Education and Mystery Science. The curriculum is designed to grow with the child, focusing on sensory exploration for ages 3 to Kindergarten, and advancing to core scientific processes for grades 1 to 5. Key components include understanding the scientific method, the engineering design process, and an introduction to various scientific domains: physical science, life science, and earth science. The document also encourages parent engagement by providing spaces for notes and reflections during orientation and throughout the academic year.
