STEM in Kindergarten is a 26-week, inquiry-based, hands-on kindergarten curriculum that encapsulates science, technology, engineering, and math; along with reading, writing, and social studies. The curriculum is designed around the Next Generation Science Standards and covers the kindergarten standards for Common Core Mathematics and Common Core Language Arts.

The Pp is for Penguin STEM unit provides an in-depth study of penguins, Antarctica, and the predators and prey in the ocean. This unit is designed to encompass science, technology, engineering, and math; along with reading, writing, social studies, and various center activities. Students are given the opportunity to engineer penguins and slopes to toboggan down; measure and count units to determine and compare lengths/heights of objects; and research penguins and their Antarctic habitat.
