STEM and other content areas

Hello, my name is Abby McKee and I am a preservice teacher at Wartburg College. I am currently taking a Science Methods class and we focus on getting science into the classroom. One thing that I have noticed about my lesson planning and teaching is I am struggling sometimes to connect STEM with other content areas. I am running out of ideas and feel like some of the ideas are repetitive.

What are your tips or ideas about implementing other content areas into STEM?

Try [email protected] and search by science strand and grade level. There are many resources and the overview will show you which parts of 3 dimensional learning are addressed and some ways you can adapt the lesson to get more STEM related standards targeted. I teach elementary and not every standard can be developed with a STEM component. However, I use literature and the Picture Perfect Science Series books from NSTA to inspire my lessons.
