STEM learning can happen anywhere.
LET'S GO Boys and Girls invites you to participate in our STEM2home program for free!
We hope you will find some time this week to get outside and explore STEM as a family by completing the featured STEM activity. Then take some time to explore a STEM career related to the activity by following the links in this newsletter.

This week, we're celebrating Earth Day (April 22) and
National Citizen Science month .

We want to see what you did!
Share a picture or video of the activity with us to be entered into a drawing for a family-friendly STEM game (contact-less delivery, of course)! See instructions below.
STEM2home Activity

What you'll need : Permission from an adult to go outside, a pencil and paper if you want to take notes, your phone if you want to take pictures
Instructions :
1.       Go outside!
2.       Observe your local birds. ( Click here to see what birds are local to your area!)
3.       Take pictures of the birds you see. Take a note of where you saw them and what they were doing. ( What are they eating? What kinds of sounds are they making? What time of day are they out? )
