STEAM In A Box is a series of curriculum-linked programmes for upper primary school kids - to inspire them to love STEAM subjects, while engaging their creativity, curiousity & giving them career aspirations!
Designed for 5th & 6th class age-group, all resources and online teacher training provided!
Great for teachers who are interested in introducing and integrating STEAM into their classroom and teaching practice while enriching both their students as well as their own STEAM and science/engineering, etc. knowledge, skills, methods and techniques in particular!
Lessons are all fun, hands on, collaborative and inclusive. Students will get the chance to be creative, work with a range of different materials, experiment and build models and have fun, all while you meet part of your science curriculum requirements!
Programmes are also designed to relate to the everyday lives of your students and provide real-world examples and daily uses of science, technology, engineering, arts and maths!
All 5 lesson programmes are designed to be taught approx. 1.5/2 hours per lesson but timing is up to the teacher - you could spend longer, especially if you are using a cross curricular approach.
Resources include lesson plans, materials, training, video support!
STEAM-in-a-Box Options include a number of science focused programmes, an engineering focused programme and a climate action focused programme!
HIGHLIGHTS
• Fully Resourced 5 Lesson Programme
• Fun, creative, hands-on, relevant science, tech, engineering, arts, maths
• Including training to teach it yourself ! [support provided]
• Available in English & Irish

Our STEAM Project had a huge impact on our school. The insight gained about DNA was phenomenal.
The children completed workshops through the activities provided in the STEAM box. Fabulous insights were gained. Collaborative learning was to the fore. Team work and co-operative skills grew in tandem with the Science knowledge and skills. The project allowed for the working alongside a scientist. This has really affected the way our students now look at science and some are even considering it as a career. Wonderful project and thanks to Change X for making this happen.
Action Plan for Balscadden NS
Changing the World One Child at a time
We have a vision for the children to be experts at STEM.
The following actions have been carried out as part of our Action Plan:
A pupil council has been set up to lead the Science Plan.
We will enter a team into the RDS Science Expo.
Peer learning will take place between the lead pupil council and younger pupil classes.
A comprehensive list of science experiments have been prepared.
A catalogue of required resources has been developed.
Timetabling for the carrying out of experiments and the acquisition of resources have been developed.
We have achieved: Active learning. Colloboration. Vision. Results.
