This packet can be used for any engineering project. It includes an 8-day lesson plan.

This is an inquiry & project-based learning activity!

The packet breaks the seven steps in the engineering process down into the following:

1. Define the problem

2. Research

3. Develop possible solutions

4. Design your solution

5. Build it

6. Test it

7. Evaluate your solution

I originally created this packet for my 3rd grade weather unit. I instructed students to design a house that could withstand high wind speeds such as from a tornado or hurricane. The packet is generalized for you and includes an extra sheet that can be used for the house engineering project.

I appreciate your feedback!
