Activities Integrating Math and Science

This article is in collaboration with AIM Education Foundation.

AIMS Education Foundation is a non profit foundation dedicated to giving kids a solid understanding of math and science. AIMS started in 1981 when 80 teachers came together because they wanted to give students a strong hands-on foundation in math and science. Teachers loved the first AIMS activity book and students learned more. They are a non-profit organization because they believe in educating the student instead of making money. The foundation was founded by Dr. Arthur Wiebe and is located on the campus of Fresno Pacific University.

AIMS offers many K-9 math and science selections at their online store, some of them can be purchased in a PDF format. There are also Literature LinksLabs, Kits, & Components to help with the hands-on learning.

The members of the TOS Crew were given one of these 6 titles to use with our children.
