Rubber Band-it! - Contest for Young Inventors
This lesson was designed because students love to compete, and it primes them to use the Engineering Design process to build a boat and revise their design as needed.
Students must use at least one rubber band, which is a prerequisite to submit their invention to the Rubber Band Contest for Young Inventors. Whether or not you submit their work to the contest, STEM challenges are a win-win in your classroom or after school club!

In part one of this two-part lesson series, students will learn about (or review) the force of push and pull and how this applies to energy transfer. Students will gain an understanding of these
In this lesson students will use a 3D Pen created and constructed catapult to learn about potential energy as well as test, document, and analyze different projectiles. This is the 2nd lesson in a
In this exciting lesson, students will use the engineering design process to devise an alternative method for retrieving the shield of Ares from Hephaestus' trap, as depicted in Chapter 15 of "Percy
