Cardboard Challenge

Next level cardboard builds that combine the power of play with creative problem solving and applied innovation.
Tomball, Texas selected the virtual Cardboard Challenge. Students had access to asynchronous learning modules and a secure, online community to share their projects. The event culminated in a live, interactive Saturday morning event.
"Thank you for this opportunity! I had so much fun"
-Isaac (student)
Back to Space

A wide selection of hands-on STEAM stations ranging from K-8th grade--focusing on human exploration and application of future technologies.
Microsoft commissioned a day program with a focus on space. Our program designers selected VR goggles and our robot, Numi, for two of the four stations. Students visited other planets while programming a bot for EVA.
"They loved all of them due to the creative opportunities, out of the box thinking, discovery, and hands on experiences."
-Phyllis (parent)
Spring Brain Break

So. Much. Fun! A brain-boosting event that reignites passion and problem-solving through the power of autonomous and scoped play.
Hexa Coworking in Richardson hosted a Spring Brain Break in their conference room.
Employees were able to work while their kiddos spent the day exploring three unique zones of problem-solving with whole-group challenges. Life-sized hungry, hungry hippos, anyone?
"She chose to do the second day of your program instead of Six Flags.
Seriously. Not kidding."

STEAM Extravaganza

Next level cardboard builds that combine the power of play with creative problem solving and applied innovation.
Queen City ISD selected "Steam Extravaganza" for their Middle School science field day.
Students planned, budgeted, built and showcased their projects which integrated every component of STEAM.
"This is what school should be like. Will you come back next year?"
-Rebecca (student)
New Year New Gear

A fully immersive STEAM Event where students explore, create, and test new technologies.
Soccoro ISD selected "New Year New Gear" as their GT event. The videos and multi-leveled projects were delivered asynchronously and required no supplies. The two-week event culminated in a live, interactive presentation.
"That was so much fun!!!"
"That was cool and funny"
"The person who created that is a real genius."

Field Trips

Urban Air already had the coolest attractions, but they wanted to incorporate real, solid educational content into their field trips.
NuMinds not only wrote curriculum for every grade band, K-12th, aligning the learning to state and national standards, but we also mapped out operational logistics and created turnkey training videos so every Urban Air in the world could empower their staff to deliver real, inspired learning.

NuMinds not only wrote curriculum for every grade band, K-12, aligned to state and national standards, but we also worked with the UA team to map our operational logistics and turnkey training videos so every Urban Air in the world could empower their staff to deliver real inspired learning.
Corporate Initiatives

The corporate philanthropic team of a large organization had a recurring initiative to promote STEM education to girls. They had the location, iFly Indoor Skydiving of Frisco. They had connections to the Dallas Cowboys, and they had the recipients, 500 Girl Scouts from the North Texas area.
What they did NOT have was a program.
NuMinds worked directly with iFly to manage schedules, training guides, learning stations, and communication.
STEM/STEAM Labs

East Fort Worth Montessori Academy launched its Maker Space using custom STEAM curriculum written by NuMinds.
Using the items available in their Maker Space, we created units with narratives, teacher guides, multi-level stations.
Students explore the lunar surface, deep sea creatures, U.N. Sustainability Goals and much more!
Passion Projects

Pilot and author, David Visser, loves flying and the science behind the magic.
To share his love and inspire the next generation, he wrote a children's book."There's Magic in the Air" covers everything from Bernoulli's Principle to the FAA with diagrams, coloring pages, kid-friendly explanations, and even inspirational quotes.
David contracted NuMinds to create lesson plans, activities, and videos so teachers could utilize the content.
