Share

Description

Great STEM activity that allows students to engineer and create their own skeletons using cotton swabs! Students are able to explore and examine the best way to create the skeleton body in the space provided. Students are able to utilize important problem solving skills in this activity!

-Note: Differentiate this lesson by supplying a specific number of cotton swabs. More cotton swabs increases the challenge!

Great and Fun activity for Pre-K, Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade classrooms.

Met expectations
Would purchase more
I figured this would be a good 5-10 minute activity for my Kindergarten-3rd grade classes as a part of a few other Halloween-week themed STEAM activities. Instead, students spent the entire 30+ minutes engineering solutions to this activity. I used it as part of a discussion of constraints (materials, time), planning & prototyping, comparing/sharing ideas with classmates to improve initial designs, etc...and then added a quick "What is Engineering Design Process?" "What are Engineers?" videos if/when time allowed.
