Build a STEAM Program That Fits Your Schedule
Programs should fit the realities of your sites, staff and calendar. PCS Edventures helps program leaders choose grade bands, themes and formats that make sense for their learners — whether they need a short afterschool unit, a summer sequence or a longer school-year plan. Explore our Year of STEAM planning examples.
Start with One Topic
Use a complete program as a focused experience in science, engineering, coding, media arts, design, nature, movement or any other STEAM subject. You can use a single one-hour lesson or combine several to form longer blocks extending the activities as needed.
Combine Themes for a Longer Sequence
Build a themed sequence across grade levels or rotate topics throughout the year. PCS’s Year of STEAM examples include a 36-week, school-year format with two hours of activities per week and a six-week summer model with 12 hours of STEAM activity per week.
Plan For Multiple Sites
Use the same program model across afterschool sites, libraries, camps and youth-serving organizations, while selecting themes and grade bands that fit each location. A PCS program specialist can help your team identify a practical sequence, product mix and implementation plan.
