The paper presents teachers’ STEM education skills as well as teachers’ and students’ awareness of STEM education at primary schools. The research has concentrated on investigating potentials of STEM education and integration approach in teaching mathematics at primary schools. We also designed and organized “Saving Pig” STEM activities that integrated knowledge of mathematics, sciences, technology and other social science subjects. The research results have shown that STEM approach is appropriated for primary education. Our teaching strategies have also made a contribution to develop teachers’ STEM education skills and raised students’ interest for learning.
