I will use the curious Minds Planning for Teachers as I feel it’s a great resource to start developing STEM skills within my classroom. As this area is developing in our school having these resource to teaching skills Science skills both working scientifically and designing and making are essential. It also gave me a deeper awareness of the process of SSE in the school and how a STEM improvement plan work in a real life setting. I feel I will use drawing as a method of assessment for young children and the UNAWE documents on how evaluation may be carried out about space learning for these young children is a fantastic resource available. A lesson I will be sure to use with my class this year is the ‘ Real Spacesuit Space Technology’ lesson from curious minds.ie. This is a great lesson for Junior classes and a good introduction to science and encouraging a love of STEM in children. I enjoyed the lesson ideas on What clothes to wear from Esero resources . It was a very hands on lesson which the junior classes would really enjoy. The rain wind and storm story would be a great opportunity for cross curricular links to drama.
