Outside the box! We want students to own their learning. How science knowledge is acquired, applied and connected through a series of concept begins with writing the storyline. Through a series of well placed questions, the addition of literacy and imagination of students you find that the metaphor "thinking outside the box" will engage all students to wonder. The integration of literacy, math, engineering and design science for all students can be as simple as a box! You are only limited by you

Engineering and FOSS connection are essential to the learning of 1st grade students. The language of engineering and science are key elements of the NGSS. It is important that teachers at all grade levels begin to integrate the skills of an engineer into their learning process. This unit was develop to help teachers make that connection.
