Measuring the distance flown or the time spent in the air using timers or standard measurement tools. 4. Integrating Literacy (STEM through Stories)

It is an interdisciplinary approach that integrates four key pillars to solve real-world problems.

Build an object that can fly or glide using only recycled materials (paper, straws, tape). StkeHMM Lea1 mp4

Brainstorm all possible solutions without judgment. Plan: Select one idea and draw a detailed diagram. Create: Build a prototype using available materials.

Test the creation, identify what failed, and redesign it. 3. Kickoff Activity: "The Flight Challenge" Measuring the distance flown or the time spent

Lessons are most effective when they cast students in professional roles, such as being "paleontologists" who use evidence to tell a story or "engineers" designing for a specific mission. 2. The Engineering Design Process (EDP)

To make "Lesson 1" more approachable, educators often use . By reading a book or watching a narrative video, students can identify a problem a character faces and use their STEM skills to "engineer" a solution for that character. Build an object that can fly or glide

This introductory piece is designed to transition students from passive learning to active problem-solving by defining STEM and launching their first design challenge.
