Desktop Zip Lines -- GATE STEM for Upper Elementary
Students not only study physical science, they design with it, build with it, they write about it, calculate with it, and they live it.
It’s the engineering process in miniature as our engineering teams design and then build desktop ziplines from scratch. Students will draft plans, build zipline towers, choose the best zippy materials, and assemble their ziplines. Hey, it’s incredible fun . . . but it’s not just fun and games here! Students will use their ziplines to collaborate on a physica

GLITTER CLEAN-UP TOOL PROJECT BASED LEARNING Gold Medal PBL 3rd 4th 5th GATE
One of our 1st grade teachers came to talk to my class of 3rd graders. She was at wit’s end. She loves using glitter, but her kids are atrocious at clean-up. Glitter is everywhere! If she just had a tool that was fun to use for a 1st grader and effective. Of course, the tool would have to be made with common materials and easy to replicate. No teacher can afford to go around buying glitter tools … LAUNCH, and let the engaged learning begin! Your kids are going to love this gold medal pro

Gifted Engineering Project
Students will learn about how an engineer goes through a process to create a design. They will be on a design team and design a car that will hold a raw egg. The car will go down and ramp and crash into a brick wall. The goal is to keep the egg from cracking. Students will work through Bloom's Taxonomy throughout the lesson. A rubric is included at the end. The preview has the power point to go with it.

Two challenging but age-appropriate engineering projects highlight this unit. If you’ve taught my other STEM units, however, you know they’re not simply building projects. We’re thinking, learning science concepts, developing explanations, applying math and non-fiction reading skills, and bringing a wide variety of areas into a unit. But let’s not take lightly how cool it is to build and experiment with a cool mini glider and a working windmill!
