Boat Float STEM Challenge – Forces, Motion & Transport Engineering | Grades K–8
In the Boat-to-Shore Transport STEM Challenge, students become marine and mechanical engineers as they design a system that safely moves cargo or passengers from a floating boat to the shoreline without tipping, spilling, or sinking. This real-world engineering scenario blends buoyancy, stability, force and motion, and systems design as students solve a transportation challenge using only simple classroom materials. This engaging, low-prep STEM project is perfect for STEM labs, science class
