K–12 teachers, learning coaches, and administrators will be introduced to a lesson development approach that incorporates state and common core frameworks for math, science, history, ELA, and the arts with the Engineering Design Process, project-based learning and hands-on “making.” Presenters will share unit plans and lesson materials that will support session attendees in developing their own curriculum units that engage students and bring STEM into every class. Unit plans for multiple grades and disciplines will be shared. There will truly be something for everyone! Additionally, presenters will share how a STEM learning coach and dedicated MakerSpace have led to embedded professional development for district teachers and increased capacity for PBL and STEM instruction in the Bourne Public Schools.
