Maryland's competitive edge depends on the preparation of graduates who are highly skilled in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and proficient in languages other than English. The following content-based STEM modules were developed collaboratively by Maryland teachers, the Maryland State Department of Education, and the National Foreign Language Center. As part of Maryland's Federal Race to the Top funding, the WORLD LANGUAGES PIPELINES project is designed to plan and implement K-5 programs in Arabic, Chinese, and Spanish. These modules have been developed thoughtfully to provide a resource for language teachers who wish to enrich their classrooms with STEM content and integrated materials.  Each one is still a work in progress. As teachers use the materials and add their own ideas, demonstrations, and activities, they are invited to share their ideas and experiences with the Maryland Department of Education.   In this way the modules can grow in richness and usefulness.
