SUMMARY:Book Drop in Your Library
DESCRIPTION:Join STAR Net and Twin Cities PBS for Book Drop\, an exciting new children’s series that blends storytelling\, animation\, and real-world STEM (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics) to engage curious minds ages 4–8. Funded by the National Science Foundation\, the series is designed to ignite a passion for problem-solving and scientific thinking through the power of books and imagination. \nThis online workshop will be offered three different times over the summer (you only need to register for one). Participants will learn best practices on engaging youth in STEM through watching media and doing hands-on activities in their library programs. Attendees will receive the Book Drop Educator Guide and library kits that include materials to do the Book Drop activities and copies of the books featured in the show! Attendees agree to participate in brief evaluation surveys post-training and post-implementation. \nRegister for August 14 at 1:00 pm MT: \nRegister Here
