Build A Car STEM
This interactive STEM challenge requires students to plan and design their own race car and then to test the speed of their cars by sending them down a homemade ramp. The students are given the opportunity to revise their design and retest to see if there improvement increased the speed of their car. The students then reflect on their design.
Materials needed:
Timers
Cardboard (for ramp)
Textbooks (for ramp)
Toilet paper rolls
Plastic Water bottle and cap

Take a Bite Out of Algebra- Slope Activities 2
Students will literally take a bite out of a pretzel (or Twizzler) and predict the pattern if they would continue to eat it. A decreasing slope is discovered, and a model can be written to portray the situation. Students can predict how many bites it will take for the pretzel (or their fingers!) to be gone. Appropriate vocabulary should be introduced, including slope, intercept, trend, decreasing, and linear.
