What is in an EiE Teacher Guide?
Each EiE unit focuses on one particular field of engineering, one science topic, and is set in a specific country or state. Each EiE teacher guide includes: • A storybook that introduces basic engineering content, related science topics and highlights the engineering activities in which students will engage. Each story focuses on a child character from a different racial or ethnic background or country and includes original illustrations. • Lesson Plans with detailed instructions for teachers, as well as suggestions for English Language Learner students, and modifications to make each lesson simpler or more advanced, depending on students’ abilities. • Student Duplication Masters that are ready to photocopy for students. Duplication Masters are often written in two levels: one for Advanced elementary students and one for Basic elementary students. • Background information and additional resources for teachers.
