This is a STEM activity that deals with engineering the lava and the volcano design while setting up a town that will need to be protected from the eruptions. Students will follow the Washington State End of Course Assessment format for Design Applications. They will design their projects around two problems: Problem 1: Build a model of a volcano that will erupt and will not cause damage on your model town. Build the town in the area least likely to get damage. Problem 2: Create lava that wil

This is a STEM challenge that follows the Design and Application format for the Washington State End of Course Assessment. This is great for any STEM classroom as well. The students will be given the criteria and the problem they will solve is: "You need to land a Mars ship safely and upright on its legs without damaging the scientific equipment or injuring the humans inside. You will also need to hit the landing target." They will follow the engineering design process: Research the Problem
