Integrate STEM in your classroom!

Get your students pumped up for spring and STEM! Design an amazing windmill with rotating blades! Excellent for Earth Day or for introducing students to Green Energy.

The Engineering Design Process:

Students plan, design, and execute their own ideas. After they have completed their activity, there is time for reflection on what worked and what didn't. They follow the six step Engineering Design Process: Ask, Imagine, Plan, Create, Experiment, Improve.

Amazing resource for STEM club, STEM teachers, elementary librarians, parents who love hands-on learning, and elementary teachers who want to create a hands-on educational environment in their classroom! This is perfect as a beginning of the year activity or end of the year STEM challenge!

Aligns with NGSS(Next Gen Science Standards).

What teachers are saying about Windmill STEM Challenge:

"This was a great challenge, and supplemented nicely with our Earth science unit on renewable resources!"

"These pages provided so much support in the planning phases of this windmill challenge for my first graders. They blew me away with their final products!"

"These are wonderful. I used them as brain breaks with my STEM bins." - Jessica C.
