Tower Load Testing STEM Challenge – Elevated Structural Engineering | Grade 3
In the Future City Load Test, students become structural engineers as they design and build an elevated platform that must stay at least 4 inches off the table while supporting the maximum possible weight. Set inside the Future City Engineering narrative theme, this 1-week sprint introduces load distribution and compression as structural concepts distinct from the tower and bridge challenges of Q1 — giving Grade 3 students a complete independent Engineering Design Process cycle in a single focu

Boat Float STEM Sprint – Ocean Buoyancy Engineering | Grade 2
In the Foil Boat Delivery Sprint, students become naval engineers as they design and build an aluminum foil boat capable of carrying the maximum possible cargo payload without sinking. Set inside the Ocean Explorers narrative theme, this focused 1-week sprint challenges Grade 2 students to investigate buoyancy, hull shape, and weight distribution — testing their design, recording load data, and making one evidence-based redesign before their final cargo test.

Parachute Drop STEM Challenge – Cargo Protection Engineering | Grades K–8
In the Parachute Cargo Carrier STEM Challenge, students become aerospace and mechanical engineers as they design a parachute system capable of safely delivering a cargo payload to the ground without damage. This real-world engineering challenge blends physics, force and motion, materials science, and problem-solving as students test how drag, mass, surface area, and structural protection work together in successful aerial delivery systems. This high-engagement, low-prep STEM project is perfe
