Starting in 2020 the STEM Kit Outreach Program provides community partners with hands-on, fun, educational opportunities to a variety of youth audiences. The program consists of STEM kits around a particular theme with five unique activities packaged for use in a classroom or program setting or can be sent home with kids for individual completion. One of the best features of these kits is their versatility for program delivery. Kits come with materials for each of the five activities, individually packaged for program participants. In addition to project materials, each lesson is paired with a video tutorial, reproducible instruction sheet, career connection card, book recommendations and supplemental resources.
