Humor & Games in the STEM Classroom

Get Ready to Play, Fail, and Innovate!

Join us for a lively, hands-on session designed to spark creativity and collaboration. We’ll dive into why openness to new ideas—and even a willingness to “fail”—is essential in project-based learning and the STEM classroom. After all, failure isn’t the end; it’s the beginning of innovation.

Many students (and adults!) struggle to flip the switch to creative, collaborative thinking. The good news? There are simple, energizing activities that can help. In this session, you’ll experience several classroom-ready games that build trust, spark creativity, and encourage teamwork.

Leave this session with activities that help students embrace collaboration and idea-sharing.
