Each module includes a complete Student Textbook and a Teacher Resource Binder . Since each IMaST module follows the same framework, each module's title reflects a theme extended throughout the module's activities.
Every module begins with a challenge.
It is an integrated activity that introduces the overall module objectives and key concepts followed by a series of mathematics, science, and technology activities set in a learning cycle. Each module has a component called Making Connections. In keeping with the philosophy of allowing students to use their personal experience to construct their own knowledge, these readings are placed at the end of the activity. The Making Connections readings help students to expand and link what they are learning to real-world situations. Even though the emphasis is on the interrelations between mathematics, science, and technology, it is often possible to relate to other disciplines, such as social studies and language arts.
