A Boat for A Bug
Students will learn about engineering design and redesign. Students will collaborate and communicate effectively with their peers to plan and design a boat structure. They will build a clay and paper model of a boat. The students will also determine if their model boat floats or sinks. Students will be applying math strategies, ELA and Science and Engineering practices throughout the lesson.

Students will build an ice snowman and a house for him to live in. They will collaborate to design a structure to keep him from melting. This project uses basic materials to study insulation and
After learning about solar, students will create a solar-powered device that can be used by the community. Students work in groups to engineer a device and present the final product to the class.
The following lesson is an engineering design lesson, with the optional ELA or Math component. Students will use popsicle sticks to construct a Truss Bridge and/or an Arch Bridge. Students will
