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

MATH Graham Cracker House STEM Project with Differentiation.
Have you ever wondered why the size of graham crackers keep getting smaller? Did you know the boxes are also getting smaller? And yet, the crackers are more expensive. How much smaller? How much more expensive? We will explore this in class. MATH. Engineering? Why do homebuilders use triangles to construct homes? We will explore this too. Powdered sugar will be our glue, and graham crackers will be the building material. Students will use candy and other foods (like pretzels, coconut, etc)

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.

Tinkercad Project #1: Make a Sideless Cube
About Teaching CAD to Elementary StudentsTeaching CAD to elementary students is harder than learning it yourself. You’ll quickly discover that students have a wide range of skills, abilities, and understandings. Some will catch on quickly while others need one-on-one guided help. So much of what they will be required to do is new that it can be overwhelming. This is even more the case when students are absent. After having taught CAD for over seven years, I’ve figured out a way to make the lesso

Waterslide Fun!
This is a STEM project (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math). Design Teams will create a waterslide out of clay that contains 90 degree angle turns. A marble must roll down the slide and stay on the track the entire way. The height will be measured in cm. The tallest slide with the most turns wins!
