Those Darn Squirrels
Students start by listening to "Those Darn Squirrels", by Adam Rubin. Instead of helping the birds, the students will explore the technology and the engineering design process to help those pesky squirrels. Students will build the habit of a systems thinker by considering an issue fully while they complete their engineering journal and project.

This is the 1st lesson in a series of 2 where students are guided through an introduction to designing apps with MIT App Inventor. Students will brainstorm ideas for their own apps, follow tutorials
Using Stop Motion Animation to Show Step-by-Step Instructions and Solve Real World Math Problems
Stop motion is a great way for students to slow down working through the steps in math to demonstrate their understanding of math concepts. Students can film a short story or step-by-step instructions
This the third lesson in a series of lessons that introduce the engineering design process to middle schoolers. In this lesson students will go through the design process twice modifying their
