Project STEAM: Model Makers by Lisa Amstutz introduces students to the creative and technical world of model-making, showing how science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) work together to bring ideas to life. Through a series of hands-on projects, students will learn how to design and build models, exploring concepts like scale, structure, and function. The book emphasizes the importance of precision and creativity, offering opportunities for students to practice skills such as measuring, cutting, and assembling materials. Students will also discover how model makers play a crucial role in industries like architecture, movie production, and engineering. By completing the projects, students will develop their problem-solving abilities and gain a deeper understanding of how models are used to test ideas and bring visions into reality. The book fosters both artistic and technical skills, encouraging students to think critically and innovatively.
