(1) Write a description of what you plan on doing for your independent study component.
Since my previous independent component already explored one of my possible answers, I will continue to work with the same general idea. I plan to research and find activities that I will be able to do with my mentors 3rd grade class. I previously spoke with the GATE instructor at Ekstrand, and will also be working with the 4th and 5th grade GATE kids later in the month of February. I will present lessons about STEM careers and conduct fun activities to (hopefully) peak their interests.
(2) Describe in detail how you think your plan will meet the 30 hours work requirement.
Researching activities, planning lessons, meeting with my mentor/GATE instructor, observing mentor teach STEM related lessons, discussing those lessons in details, preparing visuals and materials for lessons, presenting lessons to class.
(3) How does your independent study component relate to your working EQ?
My independent component is closely related in that conducting these lessons will hopefully institute some interest in STEM professions.
