STEMventures

Let's go on adventures in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths! We offer hands-on, fun STEM activities for all in Bournemouth and the surrounding areas.

We also provide online tuition for Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Computer Science.

I'm looking forward to October's hands-on science for home educated children: We're looking at acids and alkalis 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬🤩

In this session we will conduct a range of activities and experiments to investigate corrosive chemicals that we find in the home, the reactions of acids, and how we can predict what products will be produced in a chemical reaction 🧪

As part of the activities we will cover parts of the reactions of acids required practical activities for Chemistry iGCSE/GCSE. Safety instructions and equipment are provided 🥽

These sessions are designed to cover Key Stage 3 & 4 levels of knowledge and skills, approximately 11-16 years of age. This age range is a guide, but the activities this session won't be suitable for children under the age of 10. The activities are led by a qualified science teacher, fully risk assessed and DBS checked.

Over the past week we have explored Fantastic Forces in our hands-on science for home educated children sessions 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

We explored friction, forces from gravity, and the extension of springs, discovering Hooke's Law 💪

What topics would you like to see next month? 🤔

The leaves are starting to turn and that means it's approaching that time of year again: Spooky Science time 👻😱

It feels like a long time away still, but half term is about a month away now! Book your budding scientists and engineers into an hour's fun, hands-on science this half term as we explore the spookier side of science 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬🧪

I'm excited to announce that September's hands on science session will explore the theme of forces 💪 In this session we will conduct a range of activities and experiments to investigate how forces help us to explain the world around us, how friction affects us (and how it can be changed) as well as how we can measure force 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

As part of the activities we will cover parts of the Force and Extension required practical activities for Physics iGCSE/GCSE. Safety instructions and equipment are provided 🥽

These sessions are designed to cover Key Stage 3 & 4 levels of knowledge and skills, approximately 11-16 years of age. This age range is a guide: You know your child best. The activities are led by a qualified science teacher, fully risk assessed and DBS checked.

This week in Bournemouth we explored how our nervous systems work (and how we know!) As well as looking at DNA!

There are still a couple of spaces in Christchurch's being human session next Friday for home educators who'd like to join an hour of hands-on science.

The DNA extraction was at request, and I always take on board requests for session topics or experiments. Have a think and let me know any topics that you'd like to explore in our next sessions in September!

Last week we explored how bodies are built from cells to organs. We learnt how to use microscopes, how to prepare slides and viewed our own cells 🔬🧫

We also learnt how to carry out a dissection safely and explored how the heart works 🫀

Next dates are:
Bournemouth 23rd June
Christchurch 3rd July

Please do let me know any topics you'd like to see in future hands-on science sessions!

I'm excited to be bringing something a little different for next month's Hands on Science session for home educated children. We will be looking at animal cells, tissues and organs 🫀🔬🦠

In this session we will conduct a range of activities and experiments to investigate how our bodies are built and organised. As part of the activities we will cover parts of the Microscopy required practical activities for Biology iGCSE/GCSE, as well as carrying out a dissection. Safety instructions and equipment are provided 🥽🧤

Please note that one of the activities will be the dissection of a lamb's heart. If your child is not comfortable with the sight of blood, or has ethical objections to the use of animal tissues, then this session will not be suitable for them. The activities are led by a qualified science teacher, fully risk assessed and DBS checked.

Due to the resources required for dissection, the price does include a one-off £1 supplement to cover the additional costs of organs for this session. Additionally booking will close 5 days in advance in order to allow for provision of organs and there are a maximum of 8 places available in each session.

I get great feedback all of the time, but as a small business it means the world to me when people take the time to leave a review.

Why? Because it means they don't just want to tell me why they're happy with my service or event: They want to tell the world!
