Enhance students’ STEM skills with STEM soccer activities and curriculum
Our STEM Soccer program has the perfect touch and trappings to create a robust curriculum that juggles between classroom-style teaching as well as on-the-pitch learning opportunities. There are no penalties for learning this way because we use soccer as our real-life application.
Crossing the spectrum of the sport, the STEM Soccer curriculum touches and tackles several different lessons throughout the eight-module program and features:
It is our goal to make your students critical thinkers, better problem solvers and skilled collaborators. The STEM Soccer program will do just that and explain the science that is behind the world’s most popular game. This program will provide an invaluable assist so that students can lap the field with their STEM literacy and future career paths.
