Take a look at our organization's impact in the community. Every photo and video here is a Rockaway kid discovering what they can build, code, launch and imagine — free, hands-on and right here in our neighborhood.

Science you can stretch. 💜
Slime looks like play, and it is! It`s also chemistry. When learners mix and knead their own slime, they`re working with polymers: long chains of molecules that change how a liquid behaves.
Our instructors and volunteers guide learners through experiments like this so science feels like something you do, not just something you read about.
Want to help keep hands-on science free for Rockaway families? #GivingTuesday is Tuesday, December 1, and our campaign link is in our bio.

New on our website: STEM at Home! 🧪🏠
Help your young learner explore STEM at home with simple step-by-step activities you can do together, like a light-up paper circuit card, a yeast balloon experiment and the Tower of Hanoi challenge. Each one takes about 30 minutes and ends with a question to talk through together.
You`ll also find the kits and tools we use in our programs, a holiday gift guide, birthday ideas by grade and seasonal STEM ideas all year long.
Find it at stemintherockaways.org/stemathome (link in bio).

Curiosity lives here. 🌊
Across the Rockaway Peninsula, learners are shaping mountains in our AR sandbox, stretching slime to see chemistry in action, and coding robots one command at a time.
STEM In The Rockaways brings free, hands-on STEM to K–12 learners and their families in schools, community spaces and partner sites across the peninsula.
Over the next six weeks we`re sharing the stories behind the learning, leading up to #GivingTuesday on Tuesday, December 1. Follow along, and when you`re ready to help keep STEM free for Rockaway families, tap the link in our bio.
