STEM Kid Engineering -- Span the Gorge Secret Spy Adventure Challenge
In the Span the Gorge Secret Spy Adventure challenge, students launch their careers as secret spies and then solve an engineering challenge to save the day.
A vintage primary source postcard launches the mystery for our 21st Century Learners. Students will use logic interpretive skills (which include translating vintage cursive handwriting) and Internet and Computer Technology skills to “crack a code” and solve a mystery. Next, in a collaborative effort (Common Core skills in Language), stude

Slide deck: SIPPS Challenge Lessons 1-10
With Distance Learning in place, I found that using Google Slides as a way to display SIPPS materials was far easier than lugging around my huge binder/bins full of paper. I have created Challenge Lessons 1-10. You can edit this presentation to fit your needs. ( I am currently working on the rest of the Challenge Lessons, but due to the fact that many people are asking for lessons ASAP, I decided to release them in groups of 10.) I will create a bundle once all of the lessons are complete. Thank

Arctic Dogsled Racing Design Challenge - STEAM for Upper Elementary
Here’s an applied engineering challenge in which—just like in the real world of engineering—a poor design means limited success or even failure.
In the Iditarod Sled Challenge, students apply their background knowledge of physical science and use logic and imagination to construct a miniature sled that will deliver “serum” to Nome, Alaska, just like Balto once did.
Use this challenge in conjunction with your study of the arctic or the Iditarod--or as a stand-alone engineering challenge for the
