Grades K-2 STEM-at-Home Activities

Science activities are fun to do at home

Baylor College of Medicine

Summary

Explore fun FREE activities and resources that connect science content to health and wellness. Learning about the environment and the world around us supports students’ school-based studies and introduces them to basic concepts and scientific understanding. Topics include: imagining what it is like to be different animals, identifying different sounds, a garden mystery to solve, experimenting with different papers to make and test boats, make and test a paper flyer, use at-home materials to build structures, and using energy and motion to create pinwheel art.

In these unprecedented times of school closures and Stay-at-Home notices, Baylor College of Medicine is offering a set of hands-on K-12 activities, grouped by grade level, that will enable parents and children to remain engaged in STEM learning until school operations return to normal. We call this collection STEM@Home. The lessons were selected specifically because they are easy to use at home, and provide high-quality STEM content without the need for specialized training, equipment or materials. We welcome you to investigate our STEM@Home activities, and to explore the entire BioEd Online website for accurate, free STEM educational materials.
