Algorithm Showdown and Real-Life Algorithm Design Project - AP CSP
Looking for a meaningful project to go with the Code.org AP CSP Algorithms unit? If you have noticed that Code.org does not really include a full project for this unit, this resource fills that gap with a structured, student-friendly assignment that helps learners apply algorithmic thinking in a clear and practical way. This resource gives students the chance to do more than just answer lesson questions. They first analyze two different algorithms for the same task, decide which one is more e

Technical Drawings Create-A-Poster
My Create-A-Poster series takes several Engineering/STEM skills and turns them into a project for students to create a poster/infographic that teaches that skill to the reader. The Create-A-Poster project is a great way to assess student understanding of the skill. These projects are also very easy to drop in the lesson plan for sub days! I was so thankful I had these in my Sub Day Library a few years ago when my husband and I were in the ER and needed something quick and easy for me yet meaning

Communicating with Lego
This is a GREAT activity showing my future engineers how important communication is in product development. This is adapted from an activity a friend of mine found and we tweaked it to fit our engineering classroom. Basically students are playing Telephone to take a project from the client's vision to completed solution. Students are given job titles of Client, Sales Rep., Engineer, and Contractor. Clients work with Sales Reps to create a Lego model, then Sales Reps communicate with Engineers, w

Student Discovery Week - Take Apart Workshop!
Are you ready to end the year with a bang? Literally? This activity was made for the accelerated populations, but good for all curious students. I send the attached letter home, then go to my house to gather items that would be considered E-waste (or items that are obsolete in our ever-changing world of technology). When we gather enough electronic products, we take them apart to see how they work! Students love this fun and engaging activity! They usually BEG for more time!
