The 15 grade-appropriate STEM challenges target life, earth, and physical science concepts. Every unit is focused on a hands-on challenge in which students apply the STEM process of plan, create, test, and redesign. No-prep lessons and easy-to-find materials help you fit STEM learning into the busy school day.Each unit provides everything you need to guide your students in completing the hands-on challenge, including: Teacher overview pagesâ??Tips and directions for preparing students to complete a STEM challenge, as well as a materials list that suggests readily available items to gather.

Design process worksheetsâ??Activities guide students to plan, create, test, and evaluate their creation. A redesign page to evaluate their designâ??The worksheet guides students through each step of the design process and provides space to document plans, materials, results, evaluations, and revisions.Examples of STEM challenges and science topics from grade 6 include: Egg-Laying Box (Life Science Concept: Simple Machines (inclined plane) Submarine (Earth Science Concept: Buoyancy) Projector (Physical Science Concept: Optics)Science topics within each unit support Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and teach the STEM process. An answer key is not included, since there isnâ??t one correct answer or solution to solve the problem or complete the challenge. STEM Lessons and Challenges fosters studentsâ?? critical thinking, innovation, communication, and peer collaboration!
