“Brains-on, Screens-off: Unplugged STEM for Young Learners”

Part of NCTIES 2026
Friday 6 March 2026·5:30 pm

Join us for an engaging professional development session designed to bring STEM learning to life for K–2 students—without the need for screens or expensive materials. Through hands-on, unplugged activities such as making simple robots, “coding” with classmates, and problem-solving with minimal supplies, participants will experience how early learners can explore the foundations of STEM in playful, meaningful ways.Educators will walk away with ready-to-use strategies that foster collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking, while building student confidence as problem solvers and innovators. Discover how unplugged STEM not only develops essential 21st-century skills but also makes learning accessible, fun, and highly engaging for our youngest learners.
