    Description

    Read alouds come ALIVE with STEM challenges! This set of STEM challenges provides 3-5 STEM challenge per story. That means that you can use the same book across multiple grade levels OR allow students to choose which STEM challenge to try. That also means if you want to do a Family STEM Night, you can set up stations for 2-3 of the stories and let families work together on the challenge of their choice.

    Students will need to use skills such as taking measurements, creating stable structures, brainstorming, planning, and testing their designs. These challenges all follow the engineering design process (Ask - Imagine - Plan - Create - Improve).
