Activity 1:
STEM is an area I have skirted around for many years, inadvertently or intentionally incorporating aspects of it into my SESE lessons without fully understanding what the objective of ‘STEM’ was. Liston’s 2018 paper addresses this and hits the nail on the head when it says that we often teach Science or Maths or even Science and Maths but without the presence of Engineering, we are not truly teaching STEM. I found the flow graph pictorial representation of the EDP particularly insightful and helpful and I intend using it as a focus for STEM lessons in the future.
Activity 2:
The ESA lessons are very child and teacher-friendly! Well constructed and beneficial without being overly or unnecessarily complicated. I have taught various aspects of weather monitoring to all class levels throughout my teaching career but have never gone as far as to establish a dedicated Weather Station area in my school. This is something I might take on next year.
