Science Games Activities

Our Career Awareness outreach program, which connected K-12 educators with engineers and geoscientists to promote the professions, has been discontinued as of December 31, 2024, as it no longer fits within Engineers and Geoscientists BC's mandate as a regulator. For more information about this and other recent changes made to align our operations with the Professional Governance Act, please visit the Advocacy Body webpage. 

Still listed here are some freely available educational resources to promote interest in the professions of engineering and geoscience. 

What Was Science Games? 

Science Games was a 3-week science journey designed for students in Grades 1–6, and focused on celebrating all things STEM and inspiring future generations of engineers and geoscientists. 

You can access past Science Games activities and find links to other cool science-based activity pages in the section below. We hope these activities help students showcase their scientific talent, encourages them to explore their interests in science, and grow confident in their own scientific abilities.
