And yes, young girls are STEM stars! I hope that we can learn lessons from projects like the ones Atomic Kids has shown to bring interest and curiosity about science and exploration to all kids from an early age. :)Marcihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15201381687493926781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646964973240530122.post-11841441409687157212015-10-10T07:03:20.104-07:002015-10-10T07:03:20.104-07:00Young girls are STEM stars.

At the bottom of this Atomic Kids website ( www.atomickids.org ) there is a short, remarkable video which features a combined 3rd-4th grade, hands-on, atomic theory science class. The video reveals that young children have much more advanced minds than we traditionally expect and that they can and will absorb atomic theory when it is presented to them in an interesting, hands-on manner. I strongly believe that the educational "experiment" displayed in the Atomic Kids video is a valuable resource that can be of invaluable service to our nation's Elementary STEM educators and to their young students as they learn their first grappling holds on our best existing scientific explanation of matter and energy in the Universe.<br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12902553802040965331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646964973240530122.post-14393070604877282522014-08-30T22:35:25.478-07:002014-08-30T22:35:25.478-07:00Thanks Marci for the many links, I've just sta...Thanks Marci for the many links, I've just started going through them. A bunch of the 50 must-read bloggers have moved on to other things (their past posts remain enlightening and entertaining). Maybe it's time to update that list with the next wave of amazing women.Ramonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11896187117699738022noreply@blogger.com
