World-class Science Instruction

Since the first season of Teaching in Room 9, Nine PBS has teamed up with the Institute for School Head to Camp with Partnership (ISP) at Washington University in St. Louis and its STEMpact program. ISP selects and works with science educators and provides instructional coaching for Teaching in Room 9 math teachers. The Teaching in Room 9 Summertime institute aims to improve equity and educational outcomes by connecting schools with world-class research through innovative programs and partnerships.

Teaching in Room 9 bridges the gap between in- school and at-home learning, says Pablo Ramos, a STEM elementary educator at Meramec Elementary School. Families can feel confident that their kids are “learning and understanding important content through quality lessons with certified teachers, right from the comfort of their own home,” he says, and topics are linked to standards that are commonly aligned through all grade levels.

Students are also able to connect topics from Teaching in Room 9 to the culturally responsive PBS KIDS television series they are already familiar with, he says. “Teaching in Room 9 helps enrich student learning by reinforcing standards they learned during the school year and introducing topics that they may learn the next year.” “I am excited about exploring science "We know that children spend time in front of screens, phenomena in the St. Louis region and Teaching in Room 9 meets them where they are, in their homes, in the summer months,” says Melanie through the eyes of a child.
