There's Math in Growing Pumpkins?
This is a multi-day lesson on the lifecycle of a pumpkin starting with how long it takes for pumpkin seeds to produce a sprout. There is also an art element using geometric shapes to introduce the concept of math into the "A" portion of STEAM. The overarching theme is that many skills we use in one content area spill over into others in this introductory lesson in STEAM.

In this activity students work together to create a model to show the relationship between plants and animals and where they live using play doh or clay. Students will explore things around them and
Students will use engineering skills, critical thinking, math and balance, and collaboration to build a home for a visiting Hedgehog. The materials are straws, string, wooden blocks, material/fabric
