Join Asheville Museum of Science and Buncombe County Schools (NC) as they share their collaborative efforts to integrate STEM effectively into Elementary School classrooms. By uniting Formal and Informal education, we were able to implement a cross-curricular plan to integrate current student ELA curriculum with their science curriculum by immersing students in problem-based learning.
This presentation highlights the work involved to engage the underserved students in our rural and diverse community through hands-on learning from start to finish: from professional development, classroom facilitation, field trip execution at the museum, and finally showcasing student talents to the community.
