Customize a Genially escape room (like Education Escape Room or Mystery Breakout) with questions and puzzles that review key concepts from your current unit--perfect as a fun pre-test or review session. Divide students into small groups and assign each group a different puzzle or task within the escape game. This activity encourages teamwork, communication, and shared problem-solving as they work toward a common goal. Challenge students to create their digital escape rooms using Genially's templates. They must design puzzles, write clues, and embed subject content, transforming them from game players into game designers. Use a breakout template to reinforce vocabulary. Each "lock" can be opened only by correctly defining or using academic terms in context, making it ideal for ELA, science, or history.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Have students choose a topic they are passionate about and develop a research question. Guide them through the basic research steps, such as gathering sources, taking notes, and drawing conclusions. Pair students with a teacher, older student, or community member to act as a "mentor" who provides feedback on their research. If possible, connect with virtual guest speakers or experts to discuss real-world applications of their field. Use the program's focus on access to research opportunities as a springboard for discussion. Have students explore why access to education matters and brainstorm ways schools and communities can support all learners in reaching advanced opportunities.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

The MITES Semester program from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is a highly selective, six-month hybrid STEM enrichment experience designed for rising high school seniors. Beginning in the summer before senior year and continuing through December, students participate in live, online courses, complete challenging assignments, and engage in mentorship, college preparation, and networking opportunities with peers and STEM professionals. The program emphasizes rigorous, project-based learning in science, engineering, and technology while also providing guidance on college admissions and financial aid, helping students build both academic skills and readiness for future STEM pathways.
tag(s): Online Learning (34), Project Based Learning (27), seasonal (47), STEM (353), summer (49)
In the Classroom
Challenge students with a real-world problem (design a water filter, build a paper bridge, or create a simple coding solution). Have students work in teams to brainstorm, prototype, and test solutions, then reflect on what worked and what they would improve. Give students a dataset (weather trends, school surveys, or environmental data). Have students analyze patterns, create graphs, and draw conclusions. They can use Infographic Presentation Templates, reviewed here to make the graphs digitally. Have students choose a STEM topic of interest (renewable energy, space exploration, biomedical engineering). They can research the topic and create a short presentation or infographic using Canva for Education, reviewed here explaining the science and its impact on society.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

The NASA Internship Programs page provides an overview of hands-on learning opportunities that allow students to work alongside scientists, engineers, and other professionals on real NASA projects. The site highlights two main pathways: the Office of STEM Engagement internships, which build technical skills through project-based experiences, and the Pathways program, which serves as a direct route to future careers with NASA. Many internships are paid and include mentorship, career development, and opportunities to contribute to ongoing missions in space exploration, technology, and research. Open to a range of academic levels and fields, these programs are designed to prepare students for the workforce while inspiring interest in STEM and related careers.
tag(s): nasa (36), seasonal (47), space (242), STEM (353), summer (49)
In the Classroom
Assign students to small "NASA teams" (engineers, scientists, communicators). Give each group a mock space mission (for example, landing on Mars or studying Earth's climate). Have students collaborate to plan their mission and present their roles, mirroring real internship teamwork. Have students complete a simplified internship application that includes a resume and a short personal statement explaining their interests, strengths, and goals. Present a real-world NASA-inspired problem, such as designing a spacecraft capable of withstanding extreme temperatures. Students can brainstorm, sketch designs, and explain their solutions using evidence and reasoning.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

The Stanford Program for Inspiring the Next Generation of Women in Physics (SPINWIP) website describes a free, virtual summer outreach program designed to spark interest in physics among high school students, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds. Hosted by the Stanford Physics Department and the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology, the three-week program introduces students to advanced topics such as quantum physics, astrophysics, and cosmology, while also teaching basic Python coding. Participants attend lectures from university researchers, collaborate in small groups, and engage in college and career readiness workshops, all while building mentorship connections. A key feature is that the program is completely free to attend, making high-level STEM learning and mentorship accessible to a diverse group of students.
tag(s): coding (106), seasonal (47), STEM (353), summer (49)
In the Classroom
Have students explore a simple physics concept (like motion, gravity, or force) through a hands-on investigation. They can make predictions, test ideas, and record observations, building scientific thinking skills. Introduce students to beginner coding (such as simple Python or block-based coding) to model concepts like motion or patterns. Give students a real-world scenario (e.g., designing a safe landing device or building a simple structure) and have them work in teams to propose and test solutions, encouraging collaboration and critical thinking.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

The National Summer Learning Association's Discover Summer website is a helpful hub connecting families and educators to summer learning opportunities and resources. It allows you to search a large database of local and virtual programs by age, interest, and location, making it easy to find camps, enrichment activities, and academic experiences for students. In addition to the program directory, the site offers free resources, including activity ideas, planning guides, and access to select online learning platforms that support reading, STEM, and creative exploration. While many of the listed summer programs vary in cost, the site itself and its curated digital resources provide valuable no-cost tools teachers can share with families to help prevent summer learning loss.
In the Classroom
Have students explore the website to find a summer program that interests them. Have students design their own "dream" summer camp based on ideas from the site. They can include a schedule, activities, and subjects covered, integrating writing, creativity, and planning skills. Students can choose two programs from the site and compare them using a graphic organizer using the 2 and 3 Interactive Venn Diagrams by Class Tools, reviewed here. They can analyze cost, subjects, activities, and target age groups, building critical thinking skills.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
