We’ve been having so much fun with schools across the country with online science assemblies!
Kids were sent Wacky Weather kits, similar to this kit, so they could participate at home while watching iSprowt on Zoom!
We are completely sold out of this assembly, but don’t worry! For your school you can request a science camp assembly/virtual science summer camp by contacting us at help@isprowt.com. It would be fun to connect with you!
The holiday season is upon us, and parents everywhere are scrambling to secure gifts that will bring a smile to their children’s faces. We know that our kids want dynamic and fun presents, but it is always a bonus when that fun can be paired with something that has lasting value. iSprowt’s STEM kits stand out as perfect gifts for kids, combining entertainment with education to create lessons that ignite their imagination!
When we think about gifts our kids are asking for this year, there tends to be one common theme among them- they are fun! iSprowt’s science kits are no different, as they were designed by teachers to be incredibly fun in addition to educational. Each kit has been tested by over 100 elementary school students to ensure that they are engaging and entertaining enough to inspire young learners to fall in love with science. For example, our Cool Chemistry kit gives kids all the material they need to make biodegradable plastic toys, a rock crystal, and bath bombs! Each kit also features songs and dances integrated into the lesson, keeping kids laughing, moving, and having fun as they learn.
The engaging element of iSprowt’s STEM kits make them excellent for supplementing our children’s learning. In the current landscape of the COVID-19 health crisis, many students have settled into attending school remotely. One of the common obstacles associated with remote learning has been keeping children fully engaged and motivated while doing their work at home. iSprowt kits show kids that learning can fun and, because our kits align around the national science standards (NGSS), they pair excellently with their science lessons. Showing children that activities with educational value can also be entertaining and engaging instills a sense of wonder in young minds that can keep them motivated and having fun through remote learning and beyond.
iSprowt STEM kits also make great gifts for the holiday season is because they present an excellent opportunity to bond over something exciting. The holidays are a great time to slow things down and catch up with our kids. With many of us spending more time at home, however, we may have already bonded with our children over interests such as videogames, television, or their favorite toys. iSprowt science kits allow us to show young learners that science can be just as interesting and dynamic, sparking an interest in STEM that is sure to last. A parent’s involvement helps put some aspects of the lesson into perspective and show that the love for learning is truly lifelong!
iSprowt, a company known for making STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) education fun through their interactive home science experiments, is bringing hands-on science learning back into the hands of thousands of children in a new and innovative way.
With stay-at-home-orders in effect for much of the country’s school systems, it has never been more difficult for teachers to provide hands-on learning experiences. Fortunately, iSprowt has developed a solution.
iSprowt Founder and serial entrepreneur Juliana Lutzi Sherwood developed iSprowt STEM kits to provide children with a way to bring STEM education to life through fun and engaging science experiments. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic forcing more children to learn from home, Sherwood decided to develop online assemblies to help schools bring hands-on learning to their students.
Sherwood explains saying, “COVID has had a huge impact on our children and their education. As a mom and as an entrepreneur, I wanted to do something to help all our children. Leveraging iSprowt’s hands-on science kits, which align with national science standards, I created virtual assemblies that include multiple experiments. We are donating our time and resources to create and hold these assemblies with only a small charge of $2 for the students’ materials.”
With an email to Juliana at service@iSprowt.com schools will get two incredible interactive experiments, a 14-page activity book plus their school-wide assembly. The iSprowt team delivers kits directly to the school who then distributes to all participating students.
Take a look at the interactive experiments!
With COVID-19 continuing to force students to learn from home, iSprowt has made it easier than ever to ensure a hands-on learning experience.
“We are very excited to be partnering with iSprowt on assemblies and look forward to other iSprowt programs that bring hands-on learning to our students as well,” said Dr. Hillyer, Principal of Alta Vista Elementary School in Redondo Beach, CA.
The iSprowt team shares the excitement of principals like Dr. Hilyer. iSprowt will continue to deliver hands-on STEM programs to enrich the learning experiences of as many students as possible.
