Ping Pong Ball Launcher Project and Rubric
This project combines the mathematics of slope with percent grade and angle of elevation. Then, students apply the science process of engineering to design and tinker with a launcher that demonstrates the physics of projectiles and parabolic curves.
I am using this project during my linear equations in two variables unit to re-enforce the concept of slope and make connections to right triangle trig - Tangent. The next unit for my students is functions and we study linear, quadratic, and expon

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

Submarine Density Engineering Lab — Ballast Tank Design
This engineering challenge takes the complex physics of buoyancy and turns it into a hands-on mechanical system. By manipulating air volume with a syringe, students act as "ballast control officers," gaining a concrete understanding of how density dictates whether an object defies or succumbs to gravity in a fluid. Activity DescriptionBuild a Submarine is a premier STEM engineering lab that focuses on Archimedes' Principle and Density Control. Unlike static sink-or-float activities, this lab r

Garden - STEM / ELA Challenge Exploration
I developed the Thematic Challenge Explorations as a way to increase student ENGAGEMENT. Research highlights that students are more likely to be engaged when they are given an AUTHENTIC PURPOSE, REAL-WORLD applications and HANDS-ON experiences. The Thematic Challenge Explorations integrate Common Core Reading, Writing and Math standards. I wanted to create opportunities for teachers to provide memorable experiences that increase student ENGAGEMENT, while also connecting to the standards they
