The Project
Falkirk Council collaboration with Falkirk Science Festival commissioned a series of educational STEM boxes and teacher packs to inspire and teach young children in the local area about careers in sustainability and engineering. The boxes contained lesson plans, science experiments and activity packs, each themed around sustainability issues affecting the community.

Inside the Teacher’s Guide below you will find all the information you need to deliver a jam-packed STEM lesson with a hands-on activity, local heritage links and future career inspiration for your pupils! The learning materials included are best suited to pupils aged 8-14 years.
You can use the resources any way you please! In addition to the core lesson and activity there are plenty of optional extras, extension ideas and links to external resources to use at your disposal.
