A STEM education creates
critical thinkers, ignites curiosity to explore the way the world works, and
inspires a new generation of innovators. We live in an era that has seen the
rate of scientific and technological advancement increase dramatically. Making
sure kids are not only prepared, but are enthusiastic participants and leaders
in the coming waves of advancement is a difficult task made easier with
resources kids can sink their minds into. Join four inspiring women authors who
are writing exciting science books for young readers covering astrophysics,
anthropology, biology, and engineering and technology.
Executive editor Alyssa Mito-Pusey joins Pamela S. Turner, Carolyn Cinami
DeCristofano, Heather L. Montgomery, and Kristen Nordstrom to discuss their
fascinating new books that explore the many possibilities of science, writing
about evolving science, and how kids are natural scientists—always exploring
and always discovering. Attendees take away a guide filled with practical
classroom activities, as well as a whole lot of inspiration.
