Well, I think science instruction based on NGSS, gives us a good start. But I want to hear about it from experts and classroom teachers. All ideas are welcome. I just watched a short interview that I decided to share.

We have been gathering ideas and resources as well as writing STEM lessons for teachers.
You are cordially invited to explore Get Caught Engineering, a resource site to help teachers and parents connect “classroom learning” with real life applications in STEM: science, technology, engineering and math. Our goal is to provide lessons, blogs, ideas, and resources for hands-on engineering experiences that excite and challenge elementary children.
Website: http://www.getcaughtengineering.com
And “like” our Facebook page to get continual updates on great engineering resources :

Our Pinterest page is also filled with ideas!

We are looking forward to having time this summer to add lots more lessons and resources to our collection. Check us out!

Thank you for sharing Wendy! I think it is important that we share as many resources as possible whether it is science, engineering or mathematics.

Thank you for sharing. I will be joining a new school that is currently being designed. This school will be dedicated and built around STEM principles. I am eager to get my hands on as many resources as I can!

Those are some great resources. I am a student teacher and have been assigned to teach the students about STEM careers! These resources will defiantly help me!!

Thank you for sharing. I keep hearing more and more about STEM and am very interested in introducing it to my classroom.

Considering the science and the engineering components when teaching science in the elementary grades has been an approach that is used by many. However, there has been some
degree of resistance to the concept. As we move into the future, science, technology, engineering and mathematics integrated as one will be the approach that provides the necessary
foundation for the students to become prepared for the uninvented careers of that future.

I am currently taking the MOOC the Art of Tinkering the Art of Tinkering and I see some great opportunities for engineering for ALL children there. We are use circuit boards, the same ones they use at the Exploratorium. I am enjoying the class and I am currently thinking about integrating it into my energy unit 4th grade,
