The ROK Blocks Core Lab for Elementary STEM Programs is perfect for children without any previous STEM experience. More than a one-time-use STEM kit, the carefully curated materials are designed to follow your students throughout their learning. The materials are organized and un-intimidating; the large scale elements allow for collaborative learning. As your students progress through the STEM lessons, they engage in key engineering practices that include gathering information, explaining how things work, problem-solving, and critical thinking.
Early lessons focus on foundational fluencies that include reading step-by-step instructions, symbolization, measuring, patterns, and symmetry. Then students transition into more challenging concepts like how to make things move, how to make things strong, applied mathematics, the design and engineering cycle, and other foundational fluencies key to building their STEM identity.
