NM!
QuanTime is an initiative to bring fun, bite-sized quantum activities to K-12 classrooms across the US. Developed by the National Q12 Education Partnership, QuanTime boasts a repository of activities designed by teachers for teachers, with lesson plans, materials lists, etc, modeled after Hour-of-Code to fit within a 45-60 minute class.
Sandia National Labs and Computer Science Alliance are partnering with Explora, SparCQS, and other community members to bring QuanTime to New Mexico for the week of February 9-15, 2026, encouraging K-12 students to “Get entangled with quantum science!”
From 2025 QuanTime alone, our incredible teachers reached over 700 students through classroom implementation!
We're delighted to provide some additional resources for Valentine's Day!
The National Q12 Education Partnership created these quantum Valentines that can be printed either in color or in black-and-white to color in yourself!
We designed these stickers which can be printed on a color printer on 2.5" round sticker paper (we recommend Avery 22830: Glossy White Round Labels 2.5").
