Thanksgiving STEM Challenge and Turkey Craft

Have fun this Thanksgiving with this two part craft/STEM activity. Students first create their own turkey craft with a Styrofoam ball. In the second part, students build a launcher to help the turkey “escape” from the farm. The students start with a simple craft stick catapult and use the engineering design process to improve their designs.

This is a super fun way to tie in the holidays, STEM, and science into the curriculum.
