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

Action plan:
Timeline::
We plan to start the project with the two Rang 6 classes in late January / early February once the boxes arrive. The two Rang 6 classes will meet regularly during this project as they will often work through some of these lessons together.
Budget::
The boxes provided will allow the children to undertake new and exciting science experiments. This will allow them to plan and design their own experiments. The budget will then go towadrs ensuirng we have the appropiate science equipment for them to complete these experiments.
Impact::
This project will really help to prepare the students for secondary school and science experiments that they will complete these. It will also encourage them to look at science as a subject for secondary school and possibly even a career.
Location::
Our project will take place in the two Rang 6 classrooms. They will also hopefully present some of their projects to the younger classes in the halla.
