Unlocking focus with brain breaks
Classroomscreen isn't just for teaching, but for those important breaks too! This blog includes four ready-made templates for you to try out in your classroom today.
Discover fun, hands-on STEM and math activities designed specifically for kindergarten and early years classrooms.
Classroomscreen makes it easy for early childhood educators to create an interactive learning environment that boosts number recognition, shapes, and simple science exploration—all while keeping little learners engaged.
Young children thrive with activities that are interactive and visually appealing. By integrating STEM concepts in kindergarten and early elementary, you build a strong foundation in problem-solving, critical thinking, and creativity. These early experiences help children develop a positive attitude toward math and science, setting them up for lifelong success.
Use our Annotation bar or Draw widget to write numbers and draw simple addition problems on your interactive whiteboard. This method helps young learners connect numbers with real objects.
tip:
Give this a try with Taylor's template Let's Race!
Use images of everyday objects—like apples, blocks, or animals—and let students count together. This ready-made activity called Picture counting reinforces one‑to‑one correspondence and number recognition.
example:
Teaching slightly older children? For an engaging, movement-based math review, try the Stand up, Sit down template, where students stand for correct answers and sit for incorrect ones.
Each screen in our Pattern practice template displays a different type of pattern, from colors to shapes. We've also included a free printable worksheet so students can practice independently or create their own patterns, reinforcing recognition and sequencing skills.
STEM for younger kids is all about wonder and discovery! Classroomscreen helps keep science activities organized and engaging. Science-related activities, such as using building blocks, building marble runs or a fun egg drop, require good group management.
While there is no weather widget, you can use the Weather tracker screen to display daily weather observations for younger students. You can also embed various whether websites into your screen using the Embed widget.
example:
Ask your class whether it is sunny, cloudy, or rainy and drag the appropriate whether to each box.
Integrating STEM and math into your kindergarten or early years classroom can be fun and straightforward. Ready to inspire your little learners with dynamic STEM and math activities? Check out our Library to get started today!
