AIMS: Hands on Math and Science Activities


Teachers and parents alike will be able to appreciate the creative and interactive science and math activity ideas offered by the AIMS Foundation. As a teacher I used activities from various AIMS books to support the learning of science topics and standards and the best part was that the kids had a great time doing the activities.

I recommend that you visit the AIMS website to check out the types of activities contained in their materials. Once you are there, please note that the site offers access to many FREE activities that you can download. In addition, you can sign up to receive e-mails about their latest "freebie" activity. If you are really impressed with their materials, you can become a "fan" on Facebook and receive updates via the FB newsfeed or on you profile page.

Below are some of the free science and math activity offered by AIMS:
