The Mess We Made
by Kristen Mezulis
In this engaging lesson, students will participate in an engineering challenge or STEM activity that connects to a read aloud. Students will communicate solutions that will reduce the impact of humans on the land, water, air, and/or other living things in the local environment. Students will work together to create posters (physical or digital) to share ways that they can reduce our impact on land, water, air, and living things.
