Storm Drain Drama
Design Challenge:
· Introduce the design challenge (25 mins total)
You’re rushing to make your flight to Disney World when you trip and drop an important item into a storm drain.
You only have items you found in a nearby trash can to help you retrieve it!
Hurry! You only have 15 minutes to build and 2 minutes to retrieve the item before the gate closes!
o 20 minutes to build and clean up
o 5 minutes to test and receive feedback
· Item Idea: Have students pick a paper out of a hat that says what item they will be retrieving. See differentiation slide for more ideas.
· ID Observer/Reporter
o Looks for evidence of 21st Century Skills
o Takes photos (emails 2-3 pictures to teacher). *TeachSTEM coach will create visual collage slide(s) to review upon start of next visit.
