The STEM Challenges include:
1. Leprechaun Trap Using Simple Machines STEM groups must design a leprechaun trap using simple machines. The groups must decide on a simple machine using an information guide (included in the resource) and incorporate it into their design. They must create a trap for a leprechaun who is 2½ inches tall and 1 inch wide. If they test their trap and it does not work properly, they have two more attempts to fix their design. (more instructions in the resource)
2. Rainbow Run Using a list of supplies, STEM groups must design a Rainbow Run that showcases both kinetic and potential energy at use. The design must have a single large curve, in the shape of a rainbow. Students are not required to use all of the items listed below, but they are not allowed to add items to the list. (more instructions in the resource)
3. Floating Pots of Gold Using a list of supplies, STEM groups must create a floating pot of gold that is designed to carry as much gold (pennies) as possible! STEM students should discuss and predict which materials and strategies would help their device carry the most gold while staying afloat. Groups only have three attempts to test their pot of gold. They may have to redesign their pot if it fails (breaks apart). ....(more instructions in the resource)
