STEAM: A MAKER APPROACH
Each level of Next Station Student’s Book includes five STEAM challenges that add an
exciting maker approach to the series. STEAM is the process of intentionally exposing children
to the content and concepts of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math through
dynamic and process-based experiences. It is as much about the mindset it develops as its
content, and it prepares children to be self-motivated, open-minded, and curious problem
solvers who are active participants in a community of learners.
The STEAM experience is designed to give them the tools to be independent, collaborative, and
respectful as they navigate ideas, setbacks, and successes.
In a language learning setting, these experiences promote inquiry, research, communication
skills, vocabulary, reflection, handling adversity, conflict resolution, confidence, and success in
meaningful ways, providing children with forward-thinking tools that they can apply to any setting
or challenge they will face!
CHALLENGE KITS
Prepare challenge kits with the needed TEAMWORK
materials for each group. It is suggested that Working in teams develops skills such as
they are placed in a box or bag to facilitate listening, observation, sharing, collaborating,
autonomy and time management. Supplies and communication, and supports
should be generous to allow for creativity and self-confidence, self-regulation, and
differentiation among groups. persistence. It may also generate conflict,
frustration, and anxiety, which many children
do not know how to navigate. Learning these
skills is an ongoing process at all ages.

STEAM challenge cycle
The STEAM Challenge cycle has clear steps that are consistent across all the challenges. The more often the
children and teachers engage in these types of activities, the smoother the process will go.

Time for Mindfulness
WHAT IS MINDFULNESS?
Mindfulness means being present at a particular moment, being aware of it, understanding
its purpose and not judging it in any way.
To further explore the meaning of mindfulness, we can say that it is the act of paying
attention to what you are doing in the moment, focused only on what is going to evolve in
this experience. For instance, if you are listening to children, that would be paying attention
to their voice, to the way they express themselves and trying not to worry about what
you will say after them. Just being present and interested in everything they say and do.
Mindfulness is not only the seated practice, but also how you live your life.
BENEFITS OF MINDFULNESS
The practice of mindfulness has been around for • improved focus and attention;
many years and has gained interest worldwide. • better relationships with classmates;
The practice changes the wiring and the makeup

for both teachers and children: • lower levels of stress;
