What it builds
The ABCDE of scientific drawing
Not art class. Five drawing habits, printed on the back of every book, that train a child to look carefully.
Accurate drawings
Drawing what is really there, not what they expect to see.
Bigger drawings
Drawing objects bigger, so every part can be seen and checked.
Complete drawings
Finishing a given drawing: a caterpillar, a house, a spider's web.
Detailed drawings
Filling in as many details as they can find.
Explain with drawings
Using pictures to explain the abstract: how a hinge works, how a bird moves.
Why drawing
Every scientist keeps a notebook. Drawing is how a child learns to see before they learn to measure.
How it works
Look closely. Draw it. Talk about it.
Short, guided activities for a parent and child, using faces, shapes, patterns and everyday things at home.
Most pages start with 'Ask your child to...'. A parent reads, the child looks, draws and talks.
At their own face in a mirror, a bunting pattern, a bird's nest. What is the same, what is different?
Finish the caterpillar by adding 10 sections and count them aloud. Complete and colour 2D and 3D shapes.
Theme pages are for picture reading: ask what they can see. Did You Know boxes add a fact to talk about.

Why we made this
One teacher. One scientist.
Vaishali Gupta spent twenty years in education watching bright children decide they were “bad at science”, usually before they were seven, and usually after being handed a worksheet.
The problem was never ability. It was that science arrived as a set of answers to memorise, instead of a question worth chasing.
So she built what she wanted for her own classroom: activities that need no lab, no screen, and no expertise from the adult in the room.
Every order funds the SLATE Program. 5% of what you spend puts learning materials into the hands of children who would otherwise go without.

Founder, One Teacher One Scientist“A child who asks why is already doing science. My job was never to give them answers. It was to keep the question alive.”
