First Friday STEM Math Engineering Activities
Every First Friday of the month my students and myself do a 'First Friday' Math Engineering Challenge. I like to do this because it keeps the spark in math and it shows them that there is more to math than learning equations and integer rules, etc. It also teaches them team work and to think critically. I decided to space it out every first Friday so that I am making sure to do something hands-on with the kids every-so often; even though I do try to incorporate hands-on learning in my day to day
