Let's Go - STEM Trails

Overview

• The book supports teachers with 29 trail ideas for delivering scientific concepts and linking to STEM subjects for children.

• Teachers can enhance STEM lessons through outdoor learning with this practical resource that links concepts to real-world scenarios, integrating technology, maths, and engineering. Each adaptable trail includes objectives, required resources and equipment and health and safety considerations, fitting any school's surroundings.

• Developed by the Primary Science Teaching Trust (PSTT), the collection of trails was originally inspired by practising teachers who recognised that their outdoor areas were often an underused resource.

• The book features a curriculum grid, glossary of STEM terms, and cross-curricular links. Covering topics such as animals, biodiversity, habitats, electricity, forces, plants, materials, and seasonal change, it enhances learning, ignites curiosity, and encourages exploration while benefiting physical and mental well-being.
