About

This is the howtosmile.org blog, dedicated to exploring how best to teach STEM (science, math, engineering and technology) using hands-on activities. Although the activities at howtosmile.org are designed especially for informal educators (from teachers at zoos, aquariums, and science centers to outdoor environmental educators to homeschoolers), all teachers can use the high-quality resources that we are collecting.

Founding partners of howtosmile.org include U.C. Berkeley’s Lawrence Hall of Science, the Exploratorium, the Science Museum of Minnesota, the Children’s Museum of Houston, New York Hall of Science, and the Association for Science and Technology Centers (ASTC).
