April STEM Breaks - A STEM Break for EACH Day!
STEM breaks are a little different from STEM challenges. They occur over a shorter time period, require less supplies, and are an opportunity for students to try out ideas they may later use in their STEM challenges. In our classroom, STEM breaks are 10-20 minutes long, compared to STEM challenges that are 45-60 minutes long. We do not do STEM breaks every day, instead we try to do 1-2 a week. They are perfect for indoor recess activities, morning soft starts, or times when your kids just need a
