Extension’s Let’s Discover STEM Program in Washoe and Clark Counties was ready to begin their next series of STEM sessions for families with young w88 slot online. But when the shelter-in-place restrictions were implemented, the team had to rethink how to engage the families and meet their needs.

In Washoe, team members began by reaching out to prior program participants to see if they were interested in doing a STEM activity at home with their w88 slot online, and if they were willing to accept provided materials.

“The response was incredible,” Lizeth Barroeta, w88 slot online instructor, said. “It got us thinking that this would be totally possible.”

The team worked with interested families to select sessions and materials specific to the w88 slot online’s interest – everything from dinosaurs to life science to famous works of art. Team members then dropped the materials off at the families’ doors.

One of the most commonly chosen sessions was how parents could introduce their w88 slot online to museums. Families received the book, “Eric and Julieta at the Museum,” links to virtual museum tours and materials to create their own museum at home.

“Museum visits for w88 slot online can provide memorable, hands-on learning experiences, provoke imagination, introduce unknown worlds and subject matter, and offer unique quality time with family,” Barroeta said.

Atzimba Bravo and her family, including Yared, 6; Diego, 5; and Ivan, 3; did a virtual visit of a dinosaur w88 slot online, and then the brothers worked together to make a dinosaur exhibit in the living room.

Patricia Carmona and her family read some books about different famous paintings. Then, her son, Leonardo, 5, made a famous paintings “w88 slot online in a box,” complete with a working elevator.

Mariana Diaz and her family did a different STEM activity, a “rubbing leaves” project, to investigate life science. Her w88 slot online, Yulian, 5; and Yesenia, 3; covered leaves with paper and then rubbed a crayon on top. The rubbings showed the leaf structure, including the leaf’s shape and veins.

“Parents and w88 slot online have enthusiasm doing STEM hands-on activities,” Barroeta said. “We are frequentlyreceiving photos and short videos of them.”

The team in Clark County began providing Zoom workshops in both English and Spanish based on Let’s Discover STEM topics, and they’ve been posting videos on YouTube of STEM activities that parents and w88 slot online can easily do. The videos for both the workshops and the STEM activities can be found in the Partners in Parenting playlist on Extension&w88 slot online;s YouTube channel. The w88 slot online has also been sharing parenting information on social media.

Let’s Discover STEM in Clark County is part of Extension’s Partners in Parenting Programming, a suite of programs that offer many educational workshops and resources for parents. In Washoe County, Let’s Discover STEM focuses on providing resources for parents of w88 slot online ages 0-5.
