Climate Change STEM project Thermal Solar Panel MS PS3-3 MS ESS3-3 MS ETS1-2,3,4
This highly engaging engineering and design project (GOOGLE and PDF versions) allows students to design and construct a simple thermal solar panel, which they will then perform tests on to maximize thermal energy transfer.The students first learn (or review) about the difference between temperature, thermal energy, and heat.Next they are introduced to a thermal solar panel, how it works, and why it is one of the solutions to climate change. Students then work in small groups to design and constr

NASA Earth to Orbit Thermal Protection System Design Challenge
FREE NASA CURRICULUMThe Design ChallengeYou will present students with a challenge: build a structure from aluminum foil and copper screening that will protect a model of the X-33 from the heat of a propane torch for as long as possible. Students first measure the “protec- tion time” of an unprotected model. Then they design, build, test, and revise their own thermal protection systems. They document their designs with sketches and written descriptions. As a culmination, students compile their r

VEXcode IQ Blocks
My students are using the VEXcode IQ Blocks with chromebooks this season. After answering numerous repitive questions I decided to make a reference book for my elementry teams. This manual is 21 pages long and describes every block within the program. It also details how to download and how to start programing. All of my items on TPT are no fuss. Just items I use in my own classes that I thought would be helpful to others. I've designed this manual to be downloaded from Google Drive as a PD
