Get ready to dive into the world of science inquiry and the engineering design process! On this page, you will find everything you need to create an engaging Family & Community Learning (FCL) experience using the Play and Learn Science! app, a free bilingual (English / Spanish) mobile app that includes 15 games to teach children scientific inquiry. From a Facilitator Guide that gives a breakdown of the whole four-session experience to supplemental materials such as take-home materials and fun graphics, these resources expand the games into hands-on learning opportunities for families in your community.
Spanish-language versions of the documents are coming soon!
Family & Community Learning is a model for multi-generational hands-on family engagement designed to support science and literacy development among children and families. Designed for use in community based settings, these resources include multi-session sequenced experiences that are built to be modular and flexible enough to be adaptable to the wide variety of communities and contexts that they might be used in. All of the resources come packed with full activity plans, supporting materials for facilitators, links to related video and digital media, and additional take-home materials to support ongoing family engagement.
