Program Description
Event Details
It's time to inspect some insects!
Are bugs just pests...or important to the planet? Are they just creepy crawlies...or actually kinda cool?
Get the BUZZ on bugs during this session of STEM CONNECTION at MMPL on the Children's Stage. PLUS...stick around and you'll get your very own take-home critter Create Kit.
Each session of STEM Connection includes a story that helps introduce ideas related to the STEM lesson and a demonstration, lab experiment, or interactive activity for children to gain a better understanding of engineering concepts.
These sessions are FREE and all materials are provided. Audiences of grades K-5th will be most entertained and must be accompanied by an adult.
STEM CONNECTION is designed to spark curiosity, wonder, and excitement about the world around us. Hands-on activities encourage kids to explore their ability to use problem solving, creativity, and other STEM-related skills, all while presenting STEM topics in a fun and welcoming format.
STEM Connection is a partnership between MMPL and United Tribes Technical College: Intertribal Research and Resource Center.
Please consider registering for the event so staff are able to prepare supplies accordingly.
This Spring, our STEM Connection series takes place once a month from 4 PM - 4:45 PM on 2nd Thursdays:
- March 12th
