Arizona Fish and Game Resource Trunks

Commonly referred to as “Bone Boxes”, these kits contain a number of tactile resources that can be brought into the classroom. Our most common bone box includes the skins and skulls from a variety of Arizona mammals. Right now, our resource trunks are extremely limited. However, you can reach out to eproctor@azgfd.gov to check on availability of alternatives.

Everything you need for class visits and hands-on activities are included in our kits housed at partnering organizations across the Southwest, fill out this form to reserve one today.

Bring Robotics to Your Classroom

Calling all robotics-interested educators. STEM City has received a small library of robotics kits available for extended loan to schools and youth-serving programs.

Lego SPIKE Prime robot kits are easy to use, versatile to many different programs and curricula, have a plethora of support resources, and were researched and developed to ensure all children are able to interact with them. This is a great opportunity for those who are looking to:

• Get started with robotics or coding for the first time

• Make your coding lessons more hands on

• Want a fun STEM activity for a parent night

• Get robots to start a robotics team! Both FIRST and ROADS use Lego SPIKE Prime robots

• Supplement your already running robotics team or program

If you are interested in borrowing a kit, please fill out this application agreement. 

Free curricula using the Lego SPIKE Prime come with the free Lego Education software download and from multiple other sources like the ROADS companion courses or this NAU CSTL Robotics Curriculum for Indigenous learners.
