    Our Philosophy

    Research has proven that children when engaged with science early on can develop a lifelong passion for it .
    We believe that there are no right or wrong answers. Every science and Engineering problem has many possible solutions and multiple ways to reach them.
     


    • We tightly integrate Design thinking concepts, inquiry based hands-on projects, Literacy and the Arts within our science curriculum. This builds in our students, creative confidence and the ability to innovate fearlessly.​ 
    • Not to mention...The kids have a blast as they learn and retain basic science and Engineering knowledge
    • And the icing on the cake !!... They gain other life skills like problem solving ,critical thinking, empathy, a growth mindset and public speaking skills. 

    Each program has been tailored carefully to suit the grade level of the child .

    How does  all of this work ? ​

    ​History

    ​Our after-school program has been a highly popular and a much loved offering at Stocklmeir , West Valley, Montclaire , Collins and  Blue Hills elementary schools in the Cupertino Union School District for the past 3 years.
    We feel privileged to be selected as a partner by Blue Hills elementary to offer our STEAM curriculum to all students during school hours and train school staff in the NGSS curriculum from 2018-2020.
    ​We also provided our services to Cupertino Union school district to design maker carts for their pilot rollout to schools in the district.
    In April 2020 Petri-dish Science was featured in NSTA reports for the unique integration of science and the arts in its curriculum.

    ​
    Due to COVID related closures , we now offer our program online through our Virtual Studio
