  STEM is an approach to learning that highlights science, technology, engineering, and math with hands-on experiences that encourage problem-solving, critical thinking, logical reasoning, and teamwork. STEM activities help children develop resilience and a growth mindset. STEM does not have to be complicated or time-consuming. It can even be added as passive programming. Use STEM events to engage local schools and create partnerships with community organizations. 

  In this workshop we will:

  • Find out what STEM is and why there is buzz about it.
  • Learn how children of all ages engage with STEM.
  • Try hands-on STEM activities. 
  • Discover how to include STEM in your existing programming.
  • Explore ways to use STEM to engage schools and create community partnerships. 

  Tanya Moesel is an experienced and enthusiastic librarian and educator with a heart for communities and individuals. She has a desire to share the joy of libraries and literacy with everyone she meets. After teaching in public elementary schools and spending a few years homeschooling, she began working in a library children’s room. This launched her into a new career as a children’s librarian. She has worked in libraries for nine years, receiving her MLIS in 2021. She is currently the Head of Youth Services at Rodgers Memorial Library in Hudson, NH.
