The Boston Museum of Science's Engineering is Elementary (EiE) project aims to foster engineering and technological literacy among children. EiE is creating a research-based, standards-based, and classroom-tested curriculum that integrates engineering and technology concepts and skills with elementary science topics. EiE materials also connect with literacy, social studies, and mathematics. Through interesting engineering design challenges children are invited to apply their knowledge of science, engineering, and their problem solving skills, as they design, create, and improve possible solutions. This session reveals the "A Sticky Situation" and "A Stick in the Mud" units. Upon completion of the training, all participants will receive the Engineering is Elementary Teacher's Guides which include the storybooks, lesson plans, background materials, assessments, and differentiation strategies for ELL.
Note: Six (6) GT hours will count toward 6 GT hours for annual recertification or 30-hour certification but not in lieu of Curriculum and Instruction - Day 3. Fee will not be paid through Region 20 ESC GT District Co-op membership.
Participants will receive two binders upon completion of the session, and the price of the binders ($90) has been incorporated into the fee for the training.
