DESIGN CHALLENGE: CANDY GRAB

Would you like a fun, Innovative way to include candy on your agenda?

Here's an invention making design challenge that your kids can complete in one-two class periods.

HOW much candy will they get? Depends on how well their invention works!

In this Design Challenge, students will design a "candy grabber" to pick candy off a candy table and place it in a "pick up zone". They will use the materials that you provide them to make their inventions. But don't be too quick to start, there are certain constraints and rules they MUST follow in order to pick up their candy, and bring home the bacon!

This resource includes:

-Editable slides to introduce and outline the problem and constraints

- a quick formative assessment to be able to check student's understanding (yes, this is a grade...)

- a More lengthy "Alternative Formative" For kids who need more discipline and direction during a free activity.

- A rubric to help your students understand exactly HOW they are being graded, and to help you grade the formative.

- Quick guides on how to place candy to make it harder, and suggestions on what materials to make available for the kiddos.
