STEM
We use kinaesthetic learning to help young people understand areas of science, technology, engineering and maths that may confuse them on paper. Using our vast range of interactive equipment and large-scale apparatus, we challenge children to think critically and independently to solve problems related to their relevant curriculum.
Our sessions can include:
| Topic | Example Session |
| Air Resistance | Egg’cellent Parachutes Create a parachute to protect a falling egg |
| Forces | Rocket Cars Create a rocket car out of a 2 litre bottle and with a chassis |
| Navigation | Geocaching Use GPS devices to find hidden markers around the woods |
| Design | Build a bridge Using lollipop sticks and masking tape, build a bridge to span a distance |
| Combustion | Doughnut Challenge Children work out how to build sustain a fire to burn through the string to release some doughnuts. |
| Animal Adaptions | Adapting animals Meet the stuffed animals and examine how they are adapted to their environments |
| Health and well-being | Healthy Heart-rate experiment What happens to our heart-rate when we exercise? How long does it take to go back to resting? Measure pulse after a series of exercises to compare which has the greatest effect on heart rate |
