S2: Apply the Engineering Design Process

Students will become solar engineers, using science and math to turn a simple pizza box into a functional, heat-trapping oven. They will use their knowledge of energy transfer and the Engineering

Students will listen to Carla’s Glasses and use the engineering design process to plan and create their own glasses using Maker Space materials. They will use measurement and symmetry to help design

In this two-week middle school STEM project, students work independently (with optional peer collaboration) to design and build a larger-than-life wooden grasshopper and a creative, functional habitat

Students discover how the physics of waves and sound connect to real-world biomedical challenges. Through hands-on simulations, spectrogram analysis, and a design challenge, they explore how engineers

Students will make a concrete mixture from sand and white glue. This entails a civil engineering lesson on strengthening soils in order to prevent structures from collapsing. Students will create a

Students design and build eco-friendly theme park rides using recycled materials to model energy efficiency, test data, and explore sustainable power sources through STEAM.

Students will dive into STEM, literacy, and math concepts through the timeless story of The Three Little Pigs! Students will explore materials by comparing the properties of straw, sticks, and bricks

In this lesson, students will engage in a hands-on STEM project where they design and construct a model city made from Legos that is powered by renewable solar energy. Using the engineering design

In this lesson, students will learn about biomimicry—the design and production of materials, structures, and systems modeled on biological entities and processes. Students will explore examples of
