The Crane Design and Building Challenge -- STEM Problem Solving
A best practice lesson for the teaching of physical science or GATE talent pools:
In this lesson, students use the engineering process to build a working crane model that is strong enough to lift a stapler.
There are no set patterns, pre-cut materials, or teacher-led building instructions here! Students engage in the engineering process to design and build their own working models of cranes. The teacher sets guidelines and limitations, provides feedback and monitors progress, instructs the

GLITTER CLEAN-UP TOOL PROJECT BASED LEARNING Gold Medal PBL 3rd 4th 5th GATE
One of our 1st grade teachers came to talk to my class of 3rd graders. She was at wit’s end. She loves using glitter, but her kids are atrocious at clean-up. Glitter is everywhere! If she just had a tool that was fun to use for a 1st grader and effective. Of course, the tool would have to be made with common materials and easy to replicate. No teacher can afford to go around buying glitter tools … LAUNCH, and let the engaged learning begin! Your kids are going to love this gold medal pro
