Story Time STEM (STS) is a research partnership between University of Washington Bothell School of Educational Studies, Washington STEM, and a broad range of settings including public library systems, community-based organizations, and public schools. STS emphasizes, through shared reading experiences, the integration of math and literacy, exploring concepts and practices through children’s literature, honoring young learners’ ideas through interactive discussion, and designing and facilitating professional learning with educators.
Lead by Drs. Allison Hintz and Antony Smith, STS is committed to supporting equity in early mathematics and literacy learning with children – and the adults in their lives – by experiencing the wonder and joy of mathematics and deepening positive mathematical identities through stories.
