Emily Hunt returns with another stimulating selection of 40 tried-and-tested, easy-to-resource STEM activities designed to engage and inspire young learners aged 5–11.

From caring for our environment to the digital revolution, the demand for STEM skills is huge and is only set to grow. STEM is therefore an important priority area in modern education, leaving many teachers and parents asking questions such as ‘How do I fit STEM education into my day?’ and ‘What kind of activities should I be exploring?’

Just like its predecessor 15-Minute STEM (978-178583335-9), this innovative resource has been designed to reassure teachers and parents that they don’t need to be experts to deliver high-quality STEM education.

Each of the 40 activities includes step-by-step instructions, takes just 15 minutes to complete and can be resourced from everyday materials found in the classroom or at home. This means that, with minimal preparation, teachers and parents can slot these cross-curricular activities into an otherwise busy day – simultaneously broadening children’s learning and piquing their curiosity about the world around them.
