Phillips, Emily; Doran, Erin; Robertson, Laura; Nivens, Ryan Andrew
Teaching Science, v68 n3 p29-33 Sep 2022
Integration of content areas allows students to deepen and transfer knowledge. An area that allows for an organic integration of STEM content is through combining mathematics with science instruction. This paper describes how we integrated a lesson coupling flower structure with data representation in a Year 3 classroom. The lesson occurred over two days and resulted in engaging and enjoyable learning.
