Exploring Arizona with Santa and Robots (Edisons)
Students will gain knowledge about Arizona's geography, culture, and history through the book "Santa is Coming to Arizona." They will develop basic programming and problem-solving skills by programming Edison robots to navigate through a map of Arizona. Using the engineering design process, students will design a sleigh to carry eight gifts the fastest to locations throughout Arizona.

Up, Up and Away! Creating a Glider
Students will learn the principles of flight while also incorporating the Engineer Design Process as they construct gliders using pressed Styrofoam. In this hands-on lesson, students read a book about
Students will use their knowledge of Newton's Laws of Motion to design and build a "ski jump" for a Sphero Bolt. This activity can be used for Science, Social Studies, Engineering, and (possibly)
Students will investigate the properties of different types of matter and apply the concept of "P1: Matter" to design, model, and 3D print an object using a MakerBot 3D printer. Hands-On STEM Design
