I used Playful Classroom's FREE 10 Day Stem Challenge with my class for the last 3 weeks (I give them 2/3 a week and they upload their results to Seesaw - they absolutely love them and the parents have found them fantastic too). I was delighted when she agreed to write a guest blogpost for Irish Primary Teacher.
One thing that we have all learned in recent week is that Remote Teaching ain't easy. Its difficult to know how much work to set for the children, aswell as what type of work to set. Bookwork? Worksheets? Websites? Fun activities? Every family situation is different so it's important not to put pressure on anyone to complete anything. Giving optional work and being very explicit that it is not compulsory, is key.

Many children are not motivated to work from books or worksheets, especially when away from their usual classroom environment. Practical activities such as projects, science experiments, and baking, while appealing to many children, can often be stressful for parents. What to do?

STEM Challenges can engage a wide variety of children, with minimal planning, set up or fuss. But how can we go about it?

Stimulus

Keep it simple. If there's an opportunity to integrate with a topic you're already covering; use it! If not; don't force it. For example, if you're looking at Ancient Rome in History, challenge the children to build a Colosseum.

If you're looking for a way to introduce your class to the idea of STEM for the first time, consider using a picture book. Two that I would recommend are 'Rosie Revere, Engineer' by Andrea Beatty and 'The Dot' by Peter H. Reynolds. Both of these can be found on getepic.com, which is free for teachers and parents at the moment.

Videos can also be a great way to pique the interest of children. There are some amazing educational YouTube channels especially for children. SciShow Kids is one great example.

You can share these using whatever platform you are using for distance learning. If you are doing live video classes, you can even share them in real time and engage the children in some discussion.

Planning

In an ideal world, time would be given to brainstorming, writing and drawing in preparation for a STEM challenge. You can encourage the children to do this at home, but they are more likely to jump straight in!

Materials

Children can complete many, many STEM Challenges using materials they already have at home. No need to go to the shops to buy magnets, balloons or bicarbonate of soda. The following is a (non-exhaustive list) of toys and household items that can be used:
Testing and Improving
This is a natural stage in any construction challenge, and in the classroom you can place more of an emphasis on it. It's not as easy to do this remotely, but it's worth reminding the children that it may take a few attempts to achieve their goal.
Sharing
This part is easy. The children will be very keen to share photos and videos of their creations with you. Encourage the children to present and describe their constructions orally or in writing. You could compile all submissions into a digital photo album or video to share with others.
10 Days of STEM Challenges

The Discover Primary Science and Maths (DPSM) programme at Science Foundation Ireland teamed up with Galway Atlantaquaria to explore seashore species, sustainability, and ocean conservation.

'Ocean Literacy' simply means understanding how the oceans influence us, as humans, and how we impact the oceans. Oceans cover two thirds of the planet and contain over 200,000 unique marine species with more yet to be discovered. Each of these species are important within their own habitats and have special adaptations to survive.

Oceans provide us with oxygen (produced by phytoplankton and algae) to breathe, they absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, and they contain many habitats such as coral reefs, mangroves, mudflats, and rocky shores. We use oceans to transport goods, generate renewable energy and to source food.

In the DPSM STEM Series episode at the top of the article, Anna introduces us to some of the common species found on Irish shorelines, Padraic looks at sustainable seafood and the team offer some helpful tips on how you can protect the oceans.

Why not get outdoors and carry out your own exploration of the seashore? You can become a citizen scientist by recording what you find on www.exploreyourshore.ie.
After watching our video why not?

Pick one species from this video and research their biology, habitats and predators/prey.

Write a poem, story, or draw a picture inspired by the ocean. - Investigate myths and legends surrounding the ocean.

Create a project based on ocean species in your classroom or at home. Create your own rocky shore poster, art project or school clean up group.

Investigate sustainability in relation to oceans e.g. investigations on food sustainability (food sources), human impacts on the oceans and solutions to these issues.

Set out on your own beach clean and document what you find. Even setting aside two minutes during your beach walk to pick up litter, prevents it from entering the ocean.

Explore marine litter e.g. ocean plastics and look at solutions to this.

Check out the Design & Make challenge:

Design a system to collect ocean plastics at the source.

1. Set up a large sheet of paper on the floor.

2. Draw out your school grounds, parks and local community areas.

3. Identify how litter might get into the ocean from each of these places.

4. Think up solutions to catch it along the way.

5. Even better - try to design alternatives to plastic packaging.

6. Do this as part of a team (3-4 students) and present to the class.

To celebrate Roald Dahl Day on the 13th September, I've put together a fun collection of Roald Dahl science activity ideas.

My 8 year is currently devouring Roald Dahl books and I remember spending many happy hours reading them as a child so this collection has been so much fun to put together. It's not quite complete and I will be adding to it over the next few weeks so do pop back soon.

We've also got some easy Roald Dahl themed fine motor control activity ideas suitable for younger children.

If you like the idea of edible experiments for kids, you'll love my new book Snackable Science!

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Activities

Chocolate covered strawberries and changes of state

Learn about changes of state by melting chocolate and then using it to cover strawberries. You could investigate whether the chocolate becomes solid again faster in or out of a fridge.

Extension ideas - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Science

Try adding a little golden syrup to the chocolate, does this affect the texture and taste?

Making Giant Sweets

Investigate how to make your sweets bigger, by leaving them cold and warm water for a couple of hours. What happens? Our gummy bear doubled in size!
Extension Ideas
Try different types of sweets and compare the changes.

Skittles Experiment

Place some coloured sweets in water and watch as the colour leaves the sweets. Try using warm water to see if the change happens faster.

More Skittle Ideas
Can you see the floating 'S' on the water? This should separate from the skittle as the outer coating of the skittle starts to break down. Can you find any other sweets this works with? How about M&Ms?

Shrinking Crisp Packets!!!

Do you remember the part of the story where Mike TV shrinks himself? Why not try this fun crisp packet shrinking activity from The Mad House, or can you dehydrate some grapes to make raisins?

If you don't fancy shrinking crisp packets we've used shrinky art sheets before to make key rings and they worked really well.

Willy Wonka Playdough

I love, love, love this Willy Wonka inspired play dough from The Imagination Tree.

Try smelling it, mixing the colours or use forces to squash, push and pull it. A fun idea is to make a shape using the least number of movements you can.

Make Your Own Great Glass Elevator

Can your design a pulley system to lift a homemade elevator?

What materials could you use to make your elevator see through?

Georges Marvellous Medicine Experiments - Roald Dahl Science Experiments

Making potions

Make a delicious ( or disgusting ) smelling potion using herbs and flowers from the garden.

Smelling Jars

Add some scents to small jars and see if children can guess the smell. We used lemon juice, lime juice, vanilla essence and peppermint essence.

The Enormous Crocodile Activities

Camouflage

The Enormous Crocodile camouflages himself throughout the story so the children don't spot him. Can you experiment with camouflage? Try leaving different coloured wool threads in the garden, which are the hardest to find?

Can you camouflage an object so it's hard for a friend to find.

The Enormous Crocodile See Saw

The Enormous Crocodile pretends to be a see saw in part of the story, can you build a see saw from recycled materials?

Danny the Champion of the World Activities

Can you design a pheasant catching device? Would you entice the pheasants into a box using a certain smell or food or would you make a friendly trap?

James and the Giant Peach Activities

Can you make a peach fly using helium filled balloons, or can you make a parachute for a peach?

Make a Wormery

Learn about earthworms by making your own wormery.

The Twits Activities

Mr Twit has a dirty beard with bits of food clinging to it. Discover what happens when food decays in this rotting apple investigation.

Make wormy spaghetti

Make some wormy spaghetti like Mrs Twit did for Mr Twit. To make this simply cook spaghetti in water and a bit of food colouring and add some pretend worms and a little vegetable oil for a fun sensory activity.

How to make worms from juice

Teach Beside Me makes some fantastic worms from juice!

Make glue and an upside down house

Muggle Wump turns The Twits house upside down using Hug-Tight Sticky Glue. Can you investigate which sticky substance makes the best glue to turn a dolls house upside down? We tried blu-tack, glu-dots and sellotape.

You can also make glue from milk! Try investigating how long this will hold a piece of dolls furniture upside down for.

The BFG Activities

Dream Jars

The BFG blows dreams from bottles into children's rooms, I imagine these bottles to be filled with a sparkly, glittery potion, maybe a bit like this lava lamp? What do you think?

Could you make a nightmare version using black or dark green food colouring?

How tall is the BFG?

Sophie fits inside the BFG's shirt pocket, if she is the size of an average 8 year old, how tall ( roughly ) do you think the BFG is?

Did you know human arm span is often equal to height. You can test yours with this simple ape index activity. Do you think the BFG would have a similar ape index to humans?

Matilda Activities

Matilda reads a lot of books but did you know you can stack books on eggshells without them breaking?

Do you remember the part where Miss Trunchbull swings Amanda Thripp around be her pigtails? Can you fill up a bucket of water and swing it around in a circle over your head without the water spilling?

The reason this works is down to centripetal force. If the rate of rotation is high enough that the centripetal force is at least as great as gravity the water won't spill out of the bucket.

Photo coming soon!

More Roald Dahl Science Activities

This is actually not a book I have read, but I noticed Rainy Day Mum has some lovely Minpin inspired post on her site.

Anna at The Imagination Tree has a great post about her Willy Wonka inspired birthday party.

If you need a costume for World Book Day, how about this Fantastic Mr Fox mask from Red Ted Art.

Which is your favourite Roald Dahl book?

Can you think of any more Roald Dahl science experiments for us?

All my children have loved Julia Donaldson books, especially the Gruffalo, so as it's almost World Book Day I've searched the web for my favourite Julia Donaldson science experiments and activities.

If you're looking for book themed science investigations you might also like our collection of Fairy Tale experiments for kids and Fairy Tale STEM ideas.

Room on the Broom Activities

We love this Room on the Broom sensory bin from Still Playing School.

Make a magical potion for the witch.

Oobleck ( cornflour/cornstarch and water ) coloured brown would be perfect to recreate the scene where the animals rise out of the mud to scare the dragon.

The animals all throw an item into the witches potion at the end. You could dissect a flower, make a pinecone weather station or search for twigs of different sizes.

A balancing or stacking activity would work brilliantly for Room on the Broom too - coming soon!

There are also some lovely learning ideas on the Room on the Broom website.

Gruffalo Science Activities

This Gruffalo coding activity from JDaniel4's Mom looks great.

If you have snow ( or fake snow ) make different animal footprints in the snow.

We loved playing with our Gruffalo's Child shadow puppets. Another idea would be to create lots of shadow puppets and retell the story.

Inspiration Laboratories has a brilliant build a logpile house STEM activity too.

Superworm Activities

This Superworm sensory tray is very cute and would also work well as a magnet activity, where children tests items to see if they are magnetic.

How about a homemade bug hotel? We made this one with toilet rolls!

This Superworm play dough looks great from Rainy Day Mum.

Bug oobleck is brilliant fun too!

Plain Vanilla Mom has a gorgeous bug fossil activity.

Another idea is to make worm hotel for Superworm.

Stick Man

I have some fun stick Man activities including making a stick man, building a raft with sticks and playing pooh sticks.

Children could also make shapes with sticks or collect items to make their own sensory tray.

Zog Activities

More Julia Donaldson Activity Ideas

You could draw a map for What the ladybird heard and make a tin can phone to help spread the message.

Find a somewhere you can make an echo for The Highway Rat.

Can you think of any more Julia Donaldson activity ideas for us?

Invite pupils to either find or create a weight of 100g. Next ask the pupils to choose from a variety of substances such as rice, porridge, pasta, peas, etc. Pupils will then estimate how much of each substance they will need to make a 100g weight by filling individual bags/tubs. Pupils will weigh their estimates and can add/remove weight accordingly to reach the 100g target. When all bags weigh 100g consider the following questions:

This activity can be adapted to use different target weights.
