In this book, readers are taken through a journey of all the creative ways a box can be used. As an extension activity, students could be given a box and then a task card or challenge to create a product to solve the problem. Math skills could be tied into this lesson when students need to measure and calculate their plans.

This book covers the importance of sharing your new ideas and making them come to life. It has an ongoing theme that our world needs new ideas to be shared. As an extension from this book students could practice identifying a social problem (social studies content), and then practice coming up with ideas and solutions to those problems. ]]> 2021-11-08 23:09:32 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876560343 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876561415 Author: Katey Howes 


In this book, the author details simple and more complex ways that people can be makers. In an extension activity, students could explore what it means to be a maker in different content areas: what does it mean to be a maker in language arts, math, science, art, music, ect. This could lead to a study about learning about different biographies of makers in every subject.

In this book, the author details how the design and creation process is often filled with failure, and trying and trying again. This would be a great book to introduce the Engineering Design process and the importance of trying and trying again. This could easily incorporate math skills for the things students will be designing with the engineering design process, or language arts skill where students could write a narrative of their design process]]> 2021-11-08 23:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876562798 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876563707 Author: Chad Kaholsdorf


When studying city structure in geography, social studies, or math, it is someone’s job to create the structures. This book can help students understand how some of these structures came to be, and can help students get a better understanding of a current career path/community worker. ]]> 2021-11-08 23:12:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876563707 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876565615 Author: Chris Van Dusen 


In this book, the main character takes an object that has already been invented and begins to think of new ways to improve the car to meet his needs. Once again this book can be used to detail the beginning stages of the engineering design process. Social studies standards can also be included to talk about the needs of society and humans and how some of those needs are met.  ]]> 2021-11-08 23:13:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876565615 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876566597 Author: James Carter 

This book answers some of the questions: How did the planets form, Where is our place in space, and What makes up the solar system. This book could easily supplement an inquiry lesson that has students asking questions about the universe.  This book is in a poem format, making it very easy to incorporate some language arts standards as well. ]]> 2021-11-08 23:14:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876566597 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876567633 Author: Joan Holub 


In this book, readers are taken through the groundhog day tradition from the perspective of a groundhog. The book goes into detail about what the tradition means and how accurate it actually is. This would be a great book to incorporate science standards about weather, social studies standards about days/months/seasons, and language arts/writing standards about the history of groundhog day or the upcoming/current groundhog day. ]]> 2021-11-08 23:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876567633 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876568643 Author: Julia Finley Mosca 


This book would be great to introduce the science behind the medical field. It introduces the concept of chemistry and biology. Language art standards could also be tied in when studying this biography.  ]]> 2021-11-08 23:16:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876568643 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876570770 Author: Rober Burllleigh

This book details the biography of Marie, the first person to map the underwater world. This book can be used to incorporate math skills on creating maps, science skills on how a map of the underwater world would be helpful, and language arts standards covering what a biography is. ]]> 2021-11-08 23:18:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876570770 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876572103 Author: Diane Stanley 


In this book students are able to see how computer programming/computers came to be. Students are able to see the creative design process being used from start to finish, and are able to see how other inventors have come along and made updates and adaptations to Ada’s creation to make better computer systems. This book also references the industrial revolution and the effect science had on society during that time. It would be easy to find a social study standard to connect about inventions and society changing to meet the needs of people. ]]> 2021-11-08 23:19:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876572103 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876573197 Author: James Dean 


In this book students learn the basics about conducting a hands-on science experiment. They see Pete the Cat model how to work with peers in a group, how to collect all the materials, and how to conduct an experiment. This could easily be tied into writing a tutorial or sequential writing piece on how to conduct a science experiment.

In this book the author introduces what a computer code is and how they are created. The author uses  characters, the plot, and illustrations to help students understand coding in simple terms. This book would be perfect to introduce coding and have students create their own code for classmates to follow, but instead of a sandcastle, students could use art standards to create their own form of art. ]]> 2021-11-08 23:21:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876574413 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876576052 Author: Margot Lee Shetterly and Winifred Conkling 


This could be a great book to discuss the practical uses of math and science. Students could specifically study the science of air/space technology and the long testing process that it involves. A social study lesson could easily be involved about segregation or the Space Race of the 20th century. ]]> 2021-11-08 23:22:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876576052 ashlehman https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876577243 Author: Aubrey Davis


In this book, students learn about the power of collaboration, and how sometimes it takes many people working together to create something great! This would be a great book to discuss collaboration, and a life science lesson on how vegetables grow. This book could also be used to study how communities work together to meet the needs of everyone.  ]]> 2021-11-08 23:23:02 UTC https://padlet.com/ashlehman/mkepl0p4yktpwqdn/wish/1876577243
