Lately, I’ve been obsessed with family games and trivia (like Taboo and Jeopardy). I then found this game called STEM Family Battle, which includes trivia about STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) trivia (and is only $20 on Amazon so BUY TODAY). This then sparked up some trivia things up in my mind, and, well, here they are! But unlike the trivia game, these are just facts. Nothing more, nothing less!
1. People
S = Jane Goodall is a very famous primatologist (alive).
T = Steve Jobs helped create the modern smartphone (ded).
E = Elon Musk is a chief engineer at SpaceX (alive).
M = Katherine Johnson used her math skills to help NASA launch the first man into space (ded).
2. Places
S = New Zealand is home to many famous tiny animals like the kiwi bird and the tuatara.
T = The European Organization for Nuclear Research is exactly what it sounds like.
E = The Warisan Merdeka Tower is the tallest tower in the world that is found in Malaysia.
M = Mathnasium is a public learning center in Brookfield, WI that helps kids learn math.
3. Things
S = A microscope is an object used to observe small organisms up close.
T = A microchip is a tracking device usually put on pets to find them when they get lost.
E = A blueprint is a draft of how a structure is going to be built, and it shows instructions as well.
M = The Pythagorean Theorem is an algorithm that finds the missing side of a right triangle.
