STEM Kids Curriculum Details

STEM Curious Kids is an 11 day online, integrated STEM program. This is the foundational step in the four-staged STEM Brilliance Program. In the power-packed, hands-on sessions, children works with STEM Ninjas to conceptually understand the building blocks of physics, space, coding, technology and collaborate on STEM projects. This stage prepares them for the advanced and higher stages of the STEM Brilliance Program.

How!

Let's investigate how can certain insects float on water ?


CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● Surface Tension    ● Density
● Insect Structure
● Gravitational Force

DETAILS

STEM 6 Step Learning Framework - Ask , Research, Imagine, Build, Experiment, Improve is highly effective in the investigation. By enquiring we take our students through this framework.

After research, students then build hypotheses ( say)

  • Is it a property of insects, water or both, that certain insects can float on water?
  • Are insects hydrophobic in nature ?
  • Will insects float if the water is filled with salt, sugar or lemon?

How!

How Simple Machines really makes our jobs simple !


CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● Inventor
● Amplify Effort Force
● Principles of Machine

DETAILS

2000 yrs ago great minds invented Simple Machines.

Simple Machines are a game changer for humans. They make our daily work easy by reducing effort. These machines can lift, roll, slide, cut, and keep things together. Know more how !

  • Simple Machines are Lever, Wedge, Screw, Pulley,Inclined Plane, Wheel and Axle.
  • simple machines are like friendly helpers, making our jobs simpler and more fun.
  • Just like playing with friends, simple machines make everyday tasks an exciting adventure!

Code

Let's  Code a Game! To catch fruits or crystals fallling from the sky.


CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● Algo Building   ● Coding Block ● Game Scoring System
● Effect of Speed

DETAILS

Scratch is made to learn basics programming concepts with fun.

  • It is a tool for creating interesting games, stories, and more block-based programming.
  • It has its own paint editor and sound builder.
  • It has its own library of backdrops that users can choose from to set the scene for their projects. This makes it easy for users to create diverse environments.

Anyone can start learning programming from Scratch even they do not have previous knowledge about programming languages and programming concepts.

Robots

What are Robots ? How important are sensors in Robot building !


CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● Computer Programming
● Artificial Intelligence
● Sensors  ● Automation

DETAILS

Robots are super-smart machines designed to perform various tasks autonomously or with human guidance.

Some robots help make cars in factories, others explore distant planets, and some even assist doctors in hospitals.

  • Robots use special gadgets called sensors to 'see' and 'feel' things around them.
  • Sensors act as their eyes, and ears, helping robots understand the world.
  • With sensors, robots can explore space, guide cars, and even play games with us!
iconDAY 5
Space

Know about the top 5 successful and failed Space Missions


CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● Rocketry Launch Systems
● Scientific Discoveries
● Space Organizations

DETAILS

Space missions are like grand adventures, and we keep learning and improving with each one, just like you get better at games or school projects with practice.

  • Budgets for Space Missions.
  • Space Hazards and plan for the unseen.
  • Communication - Design your space mission and act a role play. Each student play the role of either the astronauts, engineer, scientist, mission director or data analyst and work together like a well-coordinated team.
iconDAY 6
Why

Let's investigate why astronauts have to put space suits in outer space?

CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● About Gravity   ● Space walk
● Atmospheric Pressure
● Meteroids

DETAILS

Space suits are like superhero outfits for astronauts in space. Astronauts wear space suits in outer space to ensure their survival and safety. These space suits helps in:

  • Astronauts wear space suits to breathe and have air in space.
  • They keep astronauts warm or cool because space is super hot and cold.
  • They prevent tiny space rocks from hurting astronauts.
  • Space suits protect from the Sun's strong rays.
  • Astronauts can stay in space longer with these suit.
iconDAY 7
Code

Lets Code a Flying Game - "Unicorn fly to Catch the Rainbow Spiderman fly to Catch the Thief"

CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● Algorith Building
● Mathematical Sequencing
● Computational Thinking

DETAILS

Make Me Fly ! Start your game development using Scratch. Code and animate the Magical Adventures of Unicorn or Spiderman

  • Unicorn - Students build a game in which Unicorn has to catch maximum rainbows in 1 min. Rainbow appear and goes on the game screen at random coordinates and the Unicorns flies towards the rainbow to catch it and gain points.
  • Spiderman - Students build a game in which the Spiderman uses his catch thieves. It is chasing game, but Spiderman can fly (up to 5 times) and catch maximum thieves in given time.
iconDAY 8
How

How light splits in many colours and joins back ? Are Light and Energy different sides of the same coin!

CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● Einstein's Theory of relativity
● Prisms & Rainbows
● Conservation of Energy

DETAILS

Light splits into Magical Colors

  • We use light every day, and it's a bit like magic! It comes from the sun, light bulbs, and flashlights.
  • Prisms can turn regular light into a rainbow, just like magic. It's like having our own rainbow maker.
  • We get to see all the colors that make up a rainbow. It's like painting the air with invisible colors! .
  • Imagine light as the colors in a rainbow and energy as the power that makes everything exciting!
iconDAY 9
Plan

How to plan your day and build a weekly schedule on Microsoft PowerPoint

CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● Routine Development
● Productivity
● Academic Success

DETAILS

Planning your day and week with Microsoft PowerPoint can be a good idea if it makes you excited and happy. It's like creating a fun picture schedule.

  • You get to choose colors, shapes, and pictures to make it look cool and easy to understand.
  • When it looks good to you, it's easier to understand what you need to do each day.
  • You can change it anytime if your plans change. It's like having a magic eraser for your schedule.
iconDAY 10
Robots

Robots and Gears ! How can a car drive up a steep moutain by changing gears?

CONCEPTS IN FOCUS

● Gear Mechanism
● Gear Teeth Profile & Ratios
● Speed & Torque

DETAILS

Gears are mechanical components consisting of toothed wheels used to transmit motion /direction. Some basic types of gears based on the shape of teeth and interlocking:-

  • Spur gears,Helical gears,Bevel gears,Worm gears.
  • the main property of gears i.e.Gear ratio which is ratio of no. of teeth of two gears.
  • Along with the components of robots such as power source ,actuator, sensors, control ,Programing.we can use robots in our daily life in security,cooking, Robotic toys,educational robots etc
