Engage Students in Solving Real-World Problems with STEM: If your students aren’t excited about STEM the problem might be a lack of exposure to real-world challenges. Real-world problem solving should be at the core of any STEM education program. It increases student buy-in as students realize that their work has an impact that extends beyond the classroom walls. It also helps students develop empathy. #stem #stemchallenge #earthday Science Lessons, Teaching Science, Science Nerd, Interactive Science, Grammar Lessons, Writing Lessons, Teaching Reading, Elementary Stem Teacher, Elementary Librarian
