Stem Activities, Stem Challenges, Stem, Stem Build a crane, Science Experiments
This video gives you step by step directions on how to implement and construct a STEM challenge of building a simple crane with your class. I will tell you how I implement this activity in my own classroom and what supplies works best for me. I even show you how to put a holiday twist on the activity if you choose. Also, I give you suggestions on how to make the activity more challenging for upper grades.
This challenge works great when teaching your class about the six simple machines.

Mechanical Energy- Exciting Animation Video for Distance Learning
Attention-Getting Question: Does a motionless car have energy? The answer is yes! Because they have the potential to move, they have potential energy. Let’s find out why.Introduction:Energy is the ability to cause motion or create change in matter. Everything that moves has energy. Cars and people need the energy to move. Cars get their energy from gasoline and you get your energy from the foods you eat.Subject:Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. Anything that is moving has this type
