Scientific Method Lab: Paper Airplane Model Design
This “Scientific Method Lab: Paper Airplane Design" was designed for my 5th grade class, but it can easily be used with any grade level. The Big Idea would be force and motion.Older students might even like to “tweak” the lab and design their own paper airplane models!Included are lab instructions following the scientific method, a data recording sheet, and the paper airplane foldables. The lab follows the scientific method, but it does not include a Review of Literature, an abstract, or a disp

The Ultimate Paper Airplane STEAM Project: 10 Day Engineering Design Challenge
Every year since I started teaching, I've done a paper airplane contest. When I first started around 10 years ago, it was a quick contest that lasted just a few minutes. Gradually, as my experience as an educator grew, this project began to grow into what it is today... A 10 day cross-curricular mega project! I always say that student engagement is the key to learning, and I can almost guarantee that your students will be engaged during these activities! They will be measuring, graphing, reading

Snitch Launcher Engineering, Line Plot, and Conservation of Mass
In this unit, I have combined Math, Science, and Engineering together! Students will engineer a golden snitch launcher and use Conservation of Mass to show that matter/mass cannot be created or destroyed. They will also slingshot the snitches outside and measure how far they traveled in order to collect data for a line plot. You can use all of these three lessons together or you can pick and choose which portions you would like to use. Resources Included:•Powerpoint for display while you are goi
