STEM Design Cycle ~ FREE Graphic Organizer

Created by

Let me start by saying that we use the design cycle on a daily basis in all content areas. I make the graphic organizer poster-sized and it hangs up in our classroom all of the time. We use post-it notes to show our thinking and where we are in the cycle at any given moment! Students also have their own copies of the design cycle organizer to use during our STEM challenges and other STEM activities. Learning how to use the design cycle is a process for the students, let them find their way

Cooperative Learning Job Cards

Created by

Brittiny Zotzky

These are great for organizing group work and cuts out the questions on who can do what. You can print these out on full pages and display them or do what I do and print multiple per page so I can just hand them out to students during group work. That way, each student gets a chance to play each role and the responsibilities are right there on the card. If there is any way I can modify them to suit you better just let me know. Thanks and enjoy!

Red and Green Card

Students would use these cards by placing them on desk with the message up. If they are understanding and able to work independently then "I'm good." was face up, bu
