Here is a fun icebreaker activity to build critical thinking skills using the popular Pop It fidget toy! Divide your class into teams or pairs with one Pop It between each pair or set of teams. Have the kids take turns creating “pictures” out of the depressed bubbles and having their team (or other person) guess what it is! ​ ​This can also be used as an introduction to computer coding with a discussion on binary (“on” and “off” with 1’s and 0’s) as well as how pixels form a picture.

This episode of The STEM Space is all about math! Math might be the M in STEM, but it doesn’t always get the attention it deserves in K-12 STEM education efforts. Yet, its role is critical—not just for academic success, but for preparing students to solve real-world problems.
