Below are comments from individuals who attended the seminar:

  • "I always enjoy learning more about literacy strategies and how to incorporate literacy across all subjects. I recently learned about the 5 E’s in my Teaching science class and enjoyed learning more about them."
  • "I enjoyed the information that was provided and how active and engaged the community were during the webinar."
  • "I love great books and there were many new science-based picture books that I had not heard of. I was also excited to learn about NSTA's two book lists - "Outstanding Science Trade Books for K-12" and "Best STEAM Books." Looking forward to digging into those lists for many more quality book ideas!"
  • "I loved the book recommendations. It gave me some ideas of how to blend science and reading education."
