Abstract
The STEM Road Map Curriculum Series uses what has been identified through research as best-practice pedagogy, including embedded formative assessment strategies throughout each module. This chapter briefly describes the key strategies that are employed in the series. One of the main components of the STEM Road Map Curriculum Series is the STEM Research Notebook, a place for students to capture their ideas, questions, observations, reflections, evidence of progress, and other items associated with their daily work. The use of the STEM Research Notebook is designed to scaffold student notebooking skills across the grade bands in the STEM Road Map Curriculum Series. The STEM Road Map modules support inquiry strategies that include previewing, questioning, predicting, clarifying, observing, discussing, and journaling. Student safety is a primary consideration in all subjects but is an area of particular concern in science, where students may interact with unfamiliar tools and materials that may pose additional safety risks.
