STEM Exploration – Arts Integration for Early Learners

Authors: Laura Annunziata & Penny Russell, Wolf Trap

Explore arts-based techniques and strategies that seamlessly integrate the arts into STEM education. This session will highlight how age-appropriate activities in music, movement, drama, and puppetry can foster a love of learning and support the development of key skills across math, language, and literacy. Inspired by STEM and folklore, we’ll demonstrate how interactive puppet adventures can merge storytelling with engineering concepts, showcasing how young children, naturally inclined to be engineers, can engage in problem-solving and creative play. Participants will also discover how to incorporate active play and dance to explore STEM concepts, making learning both dynamic and enjoyable.
