Strawbees

FREE Summer PD + 2 FREE Kits Join us for the 2026 Pathfinders Summer course and learn how to teach engineering, invention, and coding with Strawbees + micro:bit. Earn PD hours while having fun with educators nationwide. Deadline to register is May 1st: hubs.la/Q048gHHF0

What do teachers have to say about Strawbees in the classroom? Bobbi Starling, Supervisor at Pasco County Schools, shares how it’s driving hands-on learning, student ownership, and real engagement across 52 schools in their district. Read the case study: hubs.la/Q04841QL0

Strawbees brings NGSS to life through hands-on learning. Students can build, test, and explore engineering and real-world challenges while learning core concepts, applying science practices, and making meaningful connections. See how we align: hubs.la/Q047Y9460

Registration is open for our 2026 Pathfinders Summer course: "From Ideas to Inventions" with Strawbees & micro:bit. This virtual PD helps educators bring engineering and coding into the classroom. Participants receive 2 FREE Strawbees kits. Register now: hubs.la/Q047JhB50

Registration is OPEN for our 2026 Summer Pathfinders course "From Ideas to Inventions: Playful Learning w/ Strawbees & micro:bit." Bring playful engineering into your classroom & receive 2 FREE STEAM Robotics Kits thanks to @InfyFoundation Register: hubs.la/Q0463nwR0

Confidence isn’t built by getting it right the first time. It’s built through trying, testing, and improving. Strawbees gives students the freedom to explore, fail and try again which builds real confidence and grows problem-solving skills. Read more: hubs.la/Q045cZlZ0

A simpler way to bring engineering and robotics into your K-8 classroom. The Strawbees Classroom Solution gives 20–40 students everything they need to build, design, and explore with straws, connectors, and code. See the classroom solution: hubs.la/Q0453MNH0

(Project Idea) Have your students design and build a roller coaster while exploring force, motion, and energy transfer with this fun challenge using @strawbees. Standards-aligned. Hands-on. VERY Memorable! #STEMeducation #MakerEd #K12Education #HandsOnLearning #EngineeringForKids #Makerspace

Working as a team is an essential 21st century skill. When students collaborate, they share perspectives, solve problems together, and build something stronger than they could alone. #MakerEd #Makerspace #STEM #K12Education #HandsOnLearning

Innovation starts with an idea. When students are given the freedom to create, test, and improve, they turn imagination into real solutions. That’s where creativity becomes innovation. #STEM #MakerEd #K12Education #HandsOnLearning #EdTech

Design. Test. Rethink. Repeat. This is how students develop critical thinking skills that last beyond the classroom. Real learning happens through trial and error. #MakerEd #Makerspace #STEMeducation #HandsOnLearning #ProjectBasedLearning

Build an earthquake simulator with @strawbees + micro:bit and test which structures stay standing. Students design, test, and improve like real engineers—bringing NGSS to life through hands-on learning. See the full lesson → hubs.la/Q043W06T0

Which of these 4 bridge designs can support the most weight? Hands-on challenges like bridge exploration help bring engineering concepts to life as sudents design, build, and test their ideas. See more challenges: hubs.la/Q043cvCy0 #STEMeducation #Makerspace

We love seeing Strawbees in the wild. Tag us when you post classroom projects or activities so we can share them with our followers. Teachers inspiring teachers!

🏅 STEM meets the Olympics! Challenge students to design, build & iterate Olympic-themed creations using Strawbees. From medal displays to event-inspired structures, this kind of open-ended project gets students thinking like engineers while celebrating teamwork and creativity.

AI meets engineering in action! In this Strawbees project, students train an AI image model to recognize a boat which triggers a working drawbridge. This is a hands-on way for students to see how AI can control real, physical systems. Get the project: hubs.la/Q042kvvw0
