Integrated STEM workshops for
Grades 2-5
This summer there will be two Integrated STEM workshops for
teachers
of grades 2 through 5 from South
Dakota districts. These workshops will allow teachers to
experience integrated STEM activities as learners and then
develop their own integrated STEM activities, with the help
of content experts. The activities will be created using
teachers' existing curricular materials, the SD Science and
Math standards, the Science and Engineering Practices, and
the Standards for Mathematical Practice. Again, the teachers
will have help from content experts and each other to create
these activities to use in their classrooms this coming
school year.
Teachers can earn two graduate credits at a reduced tuition
rate of $40/credit hour. Room and board will be provided on
campus for the week of the workshop. The SDSU workshop will
be held June 10 – 14, 2024, and the BHSU workshop will be
held from July 15 – 19, 2024.
We would love to have your district attend the workshop
closest to you, but we are happy to try to accommodate you
at either session. We encourage
districts to help provide transportation to the workshop.
Individual
teachers or teams of teachers are encouraged to apply.
The application link is below and a flyer is attached.
Please share with others who may be interested but are not
on the Dept of Ed Science and Math listservs.
