  • Wetu Challenge ▲
  • Mishoon (canoe) Challenge ╘═══╛

For each challenge, there is the option of simple or more advanced design criteria (suitable for a wide age range). There is also a recording sheet or option of graphic organizer to follow the engineering design process. Use at any time or as a Thanksgiving STEM investigation.

As a bonus, there are additional STEM challenge task cards, which can be done individually or in small groups at your Makerspace or STEM Station.
