When kids are naturally full of energy, sitting still to learn can be a challenge. That’s why STEM Sports® is such a game-changer—it combines athletic play with hands-on science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) learning. For kids who love to move, STEM Sports offers the best of both worlds: active, engaging learning that sticks.
What Is STEM Sports®?
STEM Sports® is a nationally recognized curriculum that teaches STEM concepts through popular youth sports. Instead of reading about velocity or force in a textbook, kids explore those concepts by kicking soccer balls, throwing footballs, or hitting volleyballs.
Every lesson connects the physical activity of sports to a real-world STEM principle. It’s learning through movement, which is perfect for young minds and bodies that crave action.
