  Teacher’s Guide Introduction STEM East Expo is designed to allow students the opportunity to discover, investigate and apply new strategies that will lead them to a 21st Century understanding of science, technology and the world around them. Allow your students to work in class, at home or during enrichment activities to give them the opportunity to develop their STEM expo projects. The goal of this guide is to provide you with some tools to help you and your students along the way. Eligibility

Date: ___________________ Dear Parents/Guardians: Your child has expressed an interest in submitting a project for the STEM East Expo 2017. This is an exciting opportunity for them to explore an area of interest in science, technology, engineering or mathematics while also having the chance to work on numeracy, literacy and communication skills. Since your child has the chance to pick his or her own STEM project, they can choose anything from the physics of making music to the biology of tide pool animals to developing their very own app. Whatever they choose, they will have the chance to experience the joy of discovery. When starting a STEM project, a student chooses a question they would like to answer. Then, they undertake targeted library and Internet research to gain the background information needed to formulate a hypothesis and design an experimental procedure. After writing a report to summarize this background research, the student performs the experiment, draws conclusions and communicates the results to judges at the STEM East Expo on Thursday, March 30, 2017. Through time management and project planning, your child will take on the responsibility of completing a project over an extended period of time. Your child will discover his or her creativity by brainstorming STEM project questions and ideas and figuring out how to display the process and results. A STEM project, through its challenge to ask question and discover, is truly a real-world experience in innovation, similar to what scientists, engineers, mathematicians and those in the technology industry do in their careers. We will provide your child with sufficient support to succeed so that they develop enthusiasm for scientific discovery. To help you support your child we have included a basic guide for how to help your child without getting over-involved as well as a planning guide for students to help them manage their project. If you have any questions, please email me at ________________________________________, or phone at __________________________. Sincerely, 
Parent’s Guide to Science Projects Information on the Scientific Method - STEM projects should follow the six-step scientific method. These steps are shown on the chart below. Time Management - The Student STEM Project Schedule can be used as a starting point for students to determine the steps they need to complete. Help your child stay on task and on time by getting out your family calendar and looking for any scheduling conflicts such and vacations. Block out times for trips to the library and other work time. How to Help - As your child works on their project, they will likely face stumbling blocks. To help, ask questions to help your child figure things out; don’t just provide the answers. Open-ended questions such as “What else could you try to solve this?” or “What is stopping you from going to the next step?” are best. Sometime just talking about it can help children get unstuck. If not, ask the teacher for help. Respect your child’s independence in learning by helping at the right level.
