What is S.T.E.A.M?S.T.E.A.M. is a curriculum based on the idea of educating students in five specific disciplines —science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics — in an interdisciplinary and applied approach. Rather than teach the five disciplines as separate and discrete subjects, STEAM integrates them into a cohesive learning paradigm based on real-world applications.

Science-engagement in natural, physical, and social world. Explore, experiment, observe, collect, manipulate. Sensory table, playdough, predicting who will come to schoolTechnology-tools, materials, techniques that make life easier. Spoons, crayons, shovel, computer, CD player, tape string, cup, bottle, etc.Engineering –building blocks, solving problems, using tools to solve problems. Stacking blocks, cause and effect toysArt –songs, drawing, dancing, playdough, pretending, and acting out stories Math-numbers, shapes, patterns, sequence, geometry, sort classifying. Cooking, counting steps, patterns on clothes, diapers. Empty and full bottle or sippy cup counting snack, washing hands sequence, schedule

Self Talk! Pretend You are Rachel Ray! Talk about EVERYTHING you will do and why
Parallel Talk! Pretend You are Howard Cosell and talk about EVERYTHING the child is doing and what other children are doing
• T- talk about what you do, the child does and what other children and adults are doing
• E-extend children’s thinking with open-ended questions, prompts and conversations “What do you notice? “How did that happen?” “What do you hear, feel, etc.?” “What will happen if…? “Why did you group these together?”
• A-acknowledge, describe and demonstrate “I see you are making a tower” “I hear you talking” “ I see you mixing yellow and blue together”
• C- “You are working so hard” “Keep trying, keep turning the pieces” “You discovered a way to fit the ball in the tube!”
• H- hone in on STEAM in everyday routines
