Description
STEM Challenges Bundle: 12 STEM Activities (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math):
STEM activities and challenges are great for developing critical-thinking, teamwork, design, analysis, innovation, and other skills important for young scientists, mathematicians, engineers and all other students as well. These activities have been carefully selected because their concepts align with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
STEM activities of this nature inspired me to become an engineer, and I have reviewed and developed hundreds of STEM challenges with elementary teachers to select those that teach valuable scientific principles without requiring a teacher to take out a loan to purchase expensive supplies that contribute little to the educational process. We have still included a list of optional supplies if you feel the need to spend $20 every time you teach a STEM activity, but the typical activity is free, requiring only school-supplied items and little to no teacher preparation.
Specifically, this STEM bundle contains inherent lessons in mechanical systems, gravity, friction, aerodynamics, alternative-fuel vehicles, vehicle stability and control, forces and interactions, energy, tension, compression, volume and capacity, pressure, weight and balance, and several other engineering concepts. These activities are valuable as lessons all by themselves, but they also pair well with formal lessons on any of these topics.
For each STEM challenge, you get a sheet of teacher instructions, a sheet of student instructions, a detailed rubric, and a two-page (I print them front and back on a single sheet) design sheet that guides students through the design process and spurs creativity by asking thought-provoking questions that engineers answer on a daily basis.
Whether you’re teaching a class of young scientists or you just want a regular class of students to enjoy an opportunity to collaborate in friendly competition on projects everyone will love, these STEM challenges will meet your need perfectly.
