Abstract STREAM education is a typical form of interdisciplinary education. Under the background of disciplinary integration, it solves practical problems based on the perspective of STREAM concepts. It focuses on cultivating and enhancing students' critical thinking and problem-solving abilities in the process of practice, and enhances interdisciplinary and creative thinking, so that students become fully developed with scientific and innovative spirit. This paper integrated STREAM concepts into developing junior high school chemistry teaching cases and put them into practice “the composition of water”. In this work, the effect on teaching and students' core chemistry literacy was studied based on experimental and control class. Data collection was carried out through paper and pencil tests and questionnaire surveys. The results showed that the experimental group was significantly better than the control group in terms of knowledge mastery and literacy development, which indicated the positive effects of STREAM concepts on both teaching and learning.
