Help your child become a science whiz... (even if you know nothing about science yourself!)

____________

You don't have to be a scientist (or even a formal teacher!) to teach science to kids

____________

Most people think that you have to be a scientist or have a science degree to teach science well.  

But that's not true. 

Children pick up on just one thing when learning science- passion. If you have a passion for science and STEM, then that passion will shine through and you'll be able to teach science to kids.  

My name is Brenda Priddy, and I've helped thousands of teachers, parents, daycare workers, summer camps, and even grandparents teach science with ease.  

And I can help you, too.  

When I was a child, there is no way I would have imagined doing what I do today. I hated science as a child, and despised the subject well into college (microbiology can eat dirt). But when my 4 year-old daughter was more interested in learning facts than fairytales, I knew it was my job to satisfy her insatiable desire to learn about the world. I didn't know a thing about teaching science to kids or STEM education- but I knew I had to try. So, I gathered every piece of science curriculum I could find. I spent hours researching STEM and STEAM and how to foster a love of science in kids. Along the way, I discovered that what a lot of curriculums taught is not what makes them excited about learning science. Together, I worked with my kids (and their friends, and girl scout troops, and my sister in STEM education) to create STEM activities and science experiments that were grade-level appropriate (and taught what standards like NGSS require) but also inspired creativity and a desire for more. Suddenly, STEM class was a whole lot more fun. When you take a step back and change how you as the educator or parent think about science, and help children answer questions they are already asking about the world, magic happens. Children are able to unlock their potential to be problem solvers, innovators, and critical thinkers. STEAMsational (and it's offshoot, Jarring Science) is the result of years of tested STEM education. Select from the options below so you can transform how you teach science and create a new generation of problem solvers, critical thinkers, and innovators.
