Current Initiatives

We’re leading hands-on, student-driven projects that bring science to life and create real impact:

The Curiosity Project

Project Horizon’s Curiosity Project program delivers engaging, in-person experiences directly to K–12 classrooms. Our goal is to spark curiosity and make STEM fun, accessible, and exciting for every student — no matter their background.

Each visit includes interactive demonstrations, real-world experiments, and take-home activities aligned with educational standards. Whether it’s building simple machines, exploring chemical reactions, or launching paper rockets, we bring science to life in ways that inspire the next generation of thinkers, builders, and problem-solvers

Stem Challenges

Project Horizon’s monthly STEM Challenge is a fun, hands-on activity designed to spark curiosity using everyday materials. Each challenge encourages real-world problem solving, creative thinking, and scientific exploration — perfect for students, classrooms, and families. Simple, accessible, and open for submissions, these challenges make science engaging and fun for all ages.

Free Science Lessons

Project Horizon’s free science video series brings real science to life through quick, hands-on lessons you can watch from anywhere. Each video covers a core concept through exciting demonstrations, easy-to-follow explanations, and challenges you can try at home or in class.

Perfect for students, teachers, and curious minds, these bite-sized lessons are designed to make science understandable, accessible, and exciting — one experiment at a time.

Stem Challenge of the Month

Can you design a simple water filter that removes dirt and particles from dirty water using only household materials?

Create a working model of a basic water filter using natural or recycled materials.

Materials (Choose from):

Scissors or utility knife (with adult help)

Empty plastic bottle or paper cup

Coffee filter or paper towel

Sand

Gravel or small pebbles

Activated charcoal (optional but cool!)

Cotton balls

Dirty water (mix clean water with soil for testing)

Rubber band or tape

Instructions:

  1. Cut the bottom off a plastic bottle (or poke a hole in the bottom of a cup).
  2. Flip it upside-down to act like a funnel.
  3. Layer the materials inside: cotton → charcoal → sand → gravel.
  4. Slowly pour the dirty water in and collect the filtered water in a clean container.
  5. Test it! How clean does the water look? Could it be cleaner?

Science Connection:

This simulates how natural aquifers and modern water treatment systems filter groundwater. It’s not drinkable — but it’s a great model of environmental engineering!
