These are just a few examples, but check out what several of our EBL students (and their siblings) have created from the remote learning STEAM Challenges!STEAM CHALLENGE #1: Create an indoor (or outdoor!) fort/hideout using blankets, pieces of furniture, other items you have around your houseSubmitted by Emma & Wyatt Engineering Notes & Reflection: 1. What worked: The triangles, because they were stronger than the squares and rectangles. 2. What didn't work: The blankets without the clips and a little brother helping ;)
STEAM CHALLENGE #2: Create a boat, raft, or floating toy using items you have around your house. THEN test it's floating capabilities in your sink or bathtub. See how much weight it can hold before sinking--for example, how many 6-peg-LEGO bricks it can hold before sinking, or how many pennies, crayons, spoons, etc. Submitted by Ben
Submitted by Maggie STEAM CHALLENGE #4: Create a tool that can be used for gardening or a container that can be used as a planter using items you have around your house-ex: recycling, art supplies,, cardboard, sticks, cups, books, etc.Submitted by Maren & Rowen Engineering Notes: We also used our popsicle sticks as shovels to dig in the dirt. Submitted by Trey & Dane Engineering Notes: "I would definitely not use LEGOS next time" :)
