A note for parents
about STEM…
STEM subjects are those that incorporate science, technology,
engineering, and math. They often overlap. You need
mathematical measurements to collect the results from a science
experiment. You need to write computer programs to operate
the machines you have engineered. You need to understand the
science of forces to be a structural engineer. STEM subjects are
highly interlinked, and many of the words from one subject will
be useful when learning about another.
Children will meet a lot of new words when they begin to study
STEM subjects at school. A great deal of technical vocabulary
is used in these lessons: names for pieces of equipment, names
for things we cannot see (such as forces), and words that describe
a specific property of materials (such as “opaque”), and these
may all be new to children.
This book contains topics and words that children are likely
to encounter in their first few years at school. It also includes many
of the topics that fascinate children in this age group, and some
that show how STEM subjects are present in our everyday lives.
A broad vocabulary can help children access their education
more easily. Spending time with children and talking about the
words and the illustrations in this book will expose them to more
than just the words written here. They will encounter additional
words as part of the conversation. This book is a great place to
start your child’s STEM education.
