Reposted with permission from our friends at Overdeck Family Foundation, whose generous and ongoing support has enabled us to create and expand our free, hands-on STEM activities for families. Read on to find out how they’ve extended their grant program with EiE and other partners to serve even more young learners.

Today, we’re proud to announce the launch of Careers for Engineers, a new, free EiE resource. As part of this launch, we want to take you inside our development process to explore why we created Careers, what the project entails, and how you can use it in the classroom.

Ever wondered what kind of career your learners could pursue with an engineering education? Has your student demonstrated skills with problem solving and creative thinking? It might be time to visit our newest exhibit at the Museum of Science!

Federal and private grants offer educators the opportunity to enrich their learners and their staff by providing crucial funding for new activities, curricula, materials and more. So whether you’re looking to finance new science textbooks or get new computers for the computer lab, we’ve gathered some funding opportunities to help. 

Each year, as we prepare to celebrate Earth Day on April 22nd, we consider how we can be doing more for our earth and environment. One thing we can do now is not let ourselves be limited to one day and, instead, take the challenge to celebrate Earth Month — a growing initiative to spread awareness of our Earth more than once a year.
