Description
In this Thanksgiving STEM Activity, students will make biodegradable plastic from corn products and learn about pilgrims, corn, popcorn and modern uses for corn. Students will also make the connection between the potential in a kernel of corn and the vision for which the Pilgrims sacrificed. This SUPER easy activity just requires corn starch, corn oil, food coloring and water. You will also need access to a microwave. Students who enjoy making slime (your sensory kiddos!) will love this.
This engaging, hands-on, faith-based lesson is perfect for middle school students at Christian schools, homeschoolers, children's church, and youth group. Includes ink-saving black and white instructions PLUS instructions with step-by-step color photos (see example in preview).
