Love STEM? Love reading? Then here's a book club for you. For grades: 3-5.
The Young Scientist Book Club is a fun, interdisciplinary twist on the traditional book club. Kids will read challenging, yet engaging STEM-focused books from all genres and formats - including fantasy, science fiction, graphic novels and more - and work to connect and share ideas about experiences and ideas about diversity, equity and inclusion in STEM.
In addition to the reading, kids will also have the chance to work on a STEM activity or challenge that ties into the reading. During our discussion of the book and its themes, kids also will have the opportunity to discuss their creations and explore the science behind them.
This month, we will be discussing is The Leak by Kate Petty. Please visit Children's Desk at Main to pick up a copy! Copies will be held behind the desk for Book Club participants.
Registration is required. Masks are required for all participants. Must be an Evanston resident or attend school in District 65 to participate. Please note: This event may be moved online. Participants will receive an email beforehand to make note of changes.
