STEM

Recognizing overlapping identities in different heritage months allows students to examine the complexity of the human experience.

Students ‘don’t need an answer, they need help with the process,’ and combining ChatGPT with Wolfram Alpha is one way to guide them through it.

Bridging the gap between abstract math concepts and real-life experiences can make the subject accessible and relevant for kids.

Every child possesses vast mathematics potential, says Jo Boaler, Stanford University mathematics professor and best-selling author—but for them to access it, we need to rethink how we teach math.

Stereotypes and cultural norms dampen girls’ interest in STEM, but educators can counter the disparities with small changes to their practice.

A dedicated day for students to explore STEM fosters 21st-century learning and excitement across grade levels.

Science, technology, engineering, and math are more important than ever, so we’ve put together a list of books to encourage girls to persevere in these subjects.

Our periodically updated list of beautiful, free posters—along with a few good reasons why you should display them in your classroom.

Project-based learning can cultivate collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking across the grades.

When teachers find creative ways to integrate reading and writing with math curricula, it humanizes the subject matter and allows kids to process unfamiliar material linguistically. 

When kids collaborated on making a sensory path for their school, what started as an occupational therapy zone became a welcoming, playful space that benefited all students.

To encourage kids to reach their fullest potential in math, consider adopting these four mindsets that help every student to thrive.

Giving students a design challenge—and a compelling reason to delve into complex engineering—makes them more engaged, motivated, and committed to deepening their own understanding.

By asking students to explore the history of scientific discoveries, we get them to view their world with more wonder—and more skepticism—and condition their minds to think about causes and effects.

Origami, the ancient art of paper folding, has applications in the modern-day classroom for teaching geometry, thinking skills, fractions, problem solving, and fun science.
