In this 3-stage STEAM program, 2nd-grade students explore the science of rainbows through storytelling and hands-on experiments. Children use mirrors, CDs, and water spray bottles to investigate how light and water interact to create different colors. The activity builds critical thinking and curiosity as students observe natural phenomena and test their own scientific ideas. Students
This 2-hour STEAM program for 2nd-grade students uses building materials to turn abstract feelings into visible, physical structures. Through sketching and construction, children learn basic engineering principles like balance and symmetry to represent different moods. The project develops emotional awareness and empathy as students share personal stories and listen to their peers’ experiences. Working in
This minimum 90-minute STEAM project helps 2nd-grade students develop problem-solving and flexibility as they turn liquid ingredients into ice cream without a machine. Through a “shake-freeze-pass” process, children build connectedness and teamwork by rotating roles and supporting each other during the experiment. Students sharpen their reasoning-based thinking by observing how temperature and motion change materials,
This minimum 2-hour STEAM programme is an excellent combination of science and visual art. By analysing familiar locations like their own school street or local park, students investigate how the placement of large and small objects on a ground plane creates the illusion of depth. Through “peephole” experiments and trial-and-error, students build problem-solving, resilience and
This two-hour STEAM program for 2nd graders uses an “escape room” format to strengthen their resilience by managing unfamiliar tasks and uncertainty without immediate teacher feedback through the classic story of the Stork and the Fox. Working in teams, students solve real-world problems like measuring weights for the fox’s lunch and using chopsticks to mimic
