This textbook offers practical guidelines for integrating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics into the elementary classroom in the context of addressing realworld problems, and cultivating in students highlevel thinking and problemsolving skills. Designed to equip teachers and future teachers with tools to create and implement standardsbased STEM curriculum and cognitively demanding tasks, author Sherri Cianca offers handson, easily implemented strategies that foster student reasoning, autonomy, and humanity.This fresh approach to STEM teaching empowers teachers (preservice and inservice) and other leaders to better understand the standards and better design effective instructional practices. The chapters work together to advance teachers abilities to achieve masterylevel understanding of content, translate standards into studentfriendly curriculum, and create a robust learning environment. Each chapter contains "probes" to uncover incomplete and inaccurate conceptions and to focus attention on key learning elements. Chapter summaries and "Reflect and Apply" sections reinforce professional development, and appendices expand on chapter content and provide rich examples of STEM units, curriculum, and assessment criteria. Dr. Cianca's vision is that teachers serve as wellequipped change agents that will empower their students to transfer STEM learning into applications that will impart a positive impact on our future world.
