STEM: Engaging Hands-On Challenges Using Everyday Materials, Grade 2 from Teacher Created Resources

This comprehensive resource is designed to spark students' imagination and engage them in the engineering design process, with 10 challenging tasks that encourage individual and collaborative problem-solving.

Each challenge builds upon previously learned concepts, culminating in a main challenge that tests students' understanding.

The book includes academic vocabulary, time frames, and formative assessments specific to each challenge, as well as materials needed found in the classroom or recycling bin.

With this resource, teachers are given the tools to guide students through the steps of the engineering design process and scientific inquiry process, helping them build a clearer understanding of science and engineering practices, disciplinary core ideas, and crosscutting concepts.
