Henkel, a chemical and consumer goods manufacturer, is launching a limited virtual series of STEM education lessons for kids, launching on November 8th, in commemoration of National STEM Day.
Henkel expands Researchers’ World program in North America with online lesson series.
The three-part online series includes topics on the process and importance of the three R’s – Reduce, Reuse and Recycle, exploring the natural world of adhesives, and detecting the presence of acids and the effects on everyday life.
The series is part of Henkel’s signature education initiative Henkel Researchers’ World, launched in North America in spring 2021. The lessons, presented in partnership with Mill River Park
Collaborative, are specifically tailored to children ages 8 to 10, and take a holistic approach toward teaching and learning by putting children in the role of an actual researcher.
“We’re pleased to continue to grow our Henkel Researchers’ World program here in North America, to help inspire the next generation of scientists in our communities,” said Jenny Schiavone, VP Corporate Communications Americas, and co-executive sponsor of Henkel Researchers’ World in North America. “STEM Day is the perfect opportunity to launch our new virtual series, expanding access opportunities online with unique science lessons each month.”
The first lesson in the limited series will premiere on Henkel’s YouTube channel on November 8th at 6 p.m., ET, and available on demand afterward. Tune in on the second Monday of each month through January for additional lessons at 6 p.m. or view on demand afterwards.
Participants can access the lesson and view the experiment materials needed on Henkel’s website. Lessons are free and no registration is required.
“We invite all parents, relatives, neighbors and friends, with children ages 8 to 10, to join in on this free and fun scientific educational opportunity,” added Schiavone.
