California educators, find us at CASE next week to see how your students can put their science knowledge to work!

Building cool things is just one part of engineering. To solve a YES challenge, students learn to ask questions and apply what they know to new kinds of problems.

We'll be at booth #218 in Sacramento, Nov. 6–8, with free STEM resources and three hands-on workshops:
𝗙𝗥𝗜 𝟰:𝟯𝟬 𝗣𝗠 📚 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. See how STEM and language skills support each other in surprising ways.
𝗦𝗔𝗧 𝟵:𝟯𝟬 𝗔𝗠 🌱 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮. Connect physical science, environmental awareness, and digital literacy.
𝗦𝗔𝗧 𝟰:𝟰𝟱 𝗣𝗠 🚀 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗠 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗺. Experience STEM career exploration from both student and teacher perspectives.

“Engineering is wicked fun!”
That's what Julia Kelly said when she was a kid, and we have the video to prove it. 💜 Years later, Julia is working as an engineer. We caught up with her and confirmed it is indeed wicked fun.
https://hubs.ly/Q04BZ9kv0

It’s Mass STEM Week, and this year's theme is “STEM starts now!” Julia’s story reminds us why early STEM experiences matter. Not because every learner will become an engineer, but because they can form their identity as a creative problem solver.

How an early experience with STEM can help shape a positive identity as a confident, creative problem-solver.

What a fun morning! YES leaders Christine and DIpa using puppets to talk about engineering with young learners at this morning's Massachusetts STEM Week kickoff here at the Museum of Science. 💜

Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll and Massachusetts Education Secretary Steve Zrike joined us here at the Museum of Science to kick off STEM Week, along with students who got to meet some of the Museum's newest robots and try their hands at YES Engineering challenges in the new Bloomberg Public Science Common.

Stay tuned for activities and STEM ideas for MA STEM Week! 🔗 https://hubs.ly/Q04BC8vr0

YES curriculum developers take their work seriously. Hundreds of hours of research, testing, and careful thought go into finding just the right materials for each engineering challenge.

Pom-poms? Sugar sprinkles? Something else entirely?

Join us this week for a behind-the-scenes look at how our team creates new engineering experiences for young learners, using our upcoming Engineering Drums unit as an example.

We’ve been busy this week hosting educators during our in-person workshop at the Museum of Science! These educators jumped right into hands-on engineering challenges, building, testing and problem-solving from a student’s point of view.

Do your middle school students need to get up and move? We asked the YES curriculum team which unit they’d pick for a class with a lot of energy! Apparently, there’s more than one right answer. 😄
