{"product_id":"stem-includes-me","title":"STEM Includes Me","description":"STEM Includes Me, Second Edition invites every child to see themselves as a future scientist, technologist, engineer, or mathematician. This updated edition expands the original vision by introducing readers to twenty‑six STEM careers from A to Z while highlighting the skills, knowledge, and real‑world impact behind each one. New to this edition are career facts, essential skills, and reflection questions designed to help children recognize their strengths and imagine their place in STEM.\nEarly exposure to STEM experiences empowers children to solve meaningful problems, collaborate with others, and explore ideas with curiosity and confidence. When communities create opportunities for all children to engage in STEM, young learners begin to develop a strong STEM identity by discovering who they are, where they belong, and what they are capable of achieving.\nAuthored by mother‑daughter duo Dr. Sherita Flake and Makenzie Flake, STEM Includes Me blends education, creativity, and representation. Dr. Flake, STEM educator, scholar, leader, and author of Creating Inclusive STEM Classrooms: Claiming Place and Making Space in Grades K–5, brings decades of experience in K–12 and higher education. Makenzie, founder of MAK Made and a professional dancer, stylist, and certified Pilates instructor, brings the arts into STEM, showing young readers that STEM pathways are as diverse and dynamic as they are.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0GSH6CWR1\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0GSH6CWR1.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Flake, Dr. Sherita|Flake, Makenzie\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
