Table-top Mini Golf: STEAM Engineering and Design for Elementary GATE
In From Putt-putt to Pebble Beach--Table-top Mini Golf, students will design and construct a playable table-top sized miniature golf course using the engineering design process. With these lessons, the teacher defines the problem, helps students gather background research, and specifies the requirements. The students do the rest: creating alternative solutions, choosing the best solution, doing development work, building a prototype, and testing and redesigning. The result is a classroom filled

STEM Kid Engineering for GATE -- FERRIS WHEELS plus Primary Sources
In this GATE engineering journey, students will each construct a very cool Ferris wheel prototype as a final product. Along the way, they will examine primary source images, read primary source history, and integrate math, engineering, and economics in a learning process which incorporates best practices in gifted and talented education for 21st Century Learners.
This is a challenging engineering project—teacher guided. I used it for GATE 4th grade; however, my kids are experienced builders.

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

STEM Engineering for Elementary GATE - Wind Power, Windmills, and Wind
Two challenging but age-appropriate engineering projects highlight this unit. If you’ve taught my other STEM units, however, you know they’re not simply building projects. We’re thinking, learning science concepts, developing explanations, applying math and non-fiction reading skills, and bringing a wide variety of areas into a unit. But let’s not take lightly how cool it is to build and experiment with a cool mini glider and a working windmill!

Desktop Zip Lines -- GATE STEM for Upper Elementary
Students not only study physical science, they design with it, build with it, they write about it, calculate with it, and they live it.
It’s the engineering process in miniature as our engineering teams design and then build desktop ziplines from scratch. Students will draft plans, build zipline towers, choose the best zippy materials, and assemble their ziplines. Hey, it’s incredible fun . . . but it’s not just fun and games here! Students will use their ziplines to collaborate on a physica

Kid STEAM Construction for GATE 3rd - 7th Grades BUILD A WORKING CAPSTAN
Maybe all you folks on the coast know what a capstan is, but we land-locked folks haven’t a clue. OK, so I know now . . . a capstan is an interesting combination of simple machines often used on the high seas, a fun construction project full of little building skill challenges, and a great tool for a hands-on geometry experiment.
In this lesson, we discover what a capstan is using primary source photos, build a scale-model capstan, experiment with it, and gather data to make this a true STEAM
