Iggy Peck, Architect: Literacy, Geometry and Engineering Unit
The students will be introduced to Iggy Peck, Architect through a story map and character traits ditto. They will begin to explore what an architect does and look at bridge design, focusing on geometry. The students will have 3 hands-on labs to complete this unit: "Which paper column can hold the most books?", "Build a truss bridge using craft sticks" and "Bridge building STEM challenge using EDP." The unit has 3 videos that will help the students better understand the key concepts of archit

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.
