Monroe Elementary School: Mathematics, Science, and Children’s Engineering!
Monroe Elementary is an amazing kindergarten through 5th-grade specialty school in Brooklyn Park, located in a highly diverse community. Project Lead the Way Launch enables students to explore engineering, computer programming, and science concepts in a fun, engaging, and collaborative manner.
STEM education encourages students to use creative problem-solving strategies to plan and design new technologies using the Engineering Design Process. As engineers, we define technology as a product or process that is designed and created to solve a problem. Students are encouraged to work with others to communicate findings and share results in inquiry-based STEM lessons. STEM lessons present students with real-world challenges that require students to use higher-level thinking skills. Monroe STEM units are integrated into multiple content areas throughout the curriculum.
