Hello New Delaval, we’re NUSTEM. We’re based at Northumbria University, and we work across the region supporting children, families and teachers in exploring science, technology, engineering and maths We’re particularly keen to help people recognise that careers in these STEM subjects are available to them.
On this page you’ll find a summary of the things we’ve done with your school, and links to follow-up activities you can do at home.
This week, Year 1 and Year 2 became naval architects. They designed, built and tested their own boats.
To discover how to design, build and test a boat with tin foil, visit our STEM at Home tin foil boats page.
Today Year 1 children became materials scientists and investigated materials using weight, electricity and magnets. On Friday, Year 2 will be doing this too. Why not investigate how strong the materials in your home are by trying our NUSTEM at home Bridge Building activity?
Today NUSTEM have been in Nursery class to investigate bubbles. For a no mess way to investigate bubbles at home, go to our NUSTEM at home bubbles page.
