Description
This Open a Racetrack PBL Project Based Learning is a NO PREP printable activity with a STEM extension to engage students in Math, Writing & Design. Students will plan and research opening a racetrack (speedway) and have the option of building the ticket office.
Checkout the PREVIEW to see all that's included!
This is a PBL that was created with 1st and 2nd graders in mind. It's simple enough to be completed independently, but some students might need extra support. All the prompts are open but guide the students towards the next step.
Students will first work on the research part of the project. There are multiple sheets that guide them through the process of research to record the information that they need to complete their projects.
At the end, they will have the opportunity for a STEM extension to build a ticket office. I have included a pattern that you can print and picture directions on how to do it. The kids can use the pattern or they can design and make their own. I recommend to let them design and think through the process of actually building as they envision their own design. I always provide my kids with: cardstock, posterboard, tape, glue, wooden sticks, etc. to use in their design.
Please, read the information about the activities carefully. If you have any questions just send me an email at teachwithpixels@gmail.com I'm happy to answer any questions ;-)
