NASCAR Kids and the National Science Teaching Association (NSTA) are launching a new science and STEM program for teachers across the United States.
Through NSTA.org, K-8 science teachers have free access to science lesson plans on aerodynamics, friction and motion, light, sound, and more. NASCAR and NSTA created the lesson plans.
“We are thrilled to partner with NSTA, a passionate community of science educators and professionals devoted to teaching and offering science resources to kids across the country,” said Pete Jung, chief marketing officer for NASCAR. “This collaboration provides NASCAR an incredible opportunity to make an impact in science education while introducing new generations to the sport.”
There will be 18 racing-themed lesson plans and a STEM at the Track resource guide on the NSTA’s website.
