STEM Engineering for Elementary GATE - Wind Power, Windmills, and Wind
Two challenging but age-appropriate engineering projects highlight this unit. If you’ve taught my other STEM units, however, you know they’re not simply building projects. We’re thinking, learning science concepts, developing explanations, applying math and non-fiction reading skills, and bringing a wide variety of areas into a unit. But let’s not take lightly how cool it is to build and experiment with a cool mini glider and a working windmill!

Invent an Animal packet
This is a fun science packet that introduces the concept of animal adaptations and walks students through the steps to invent their own animal, adapted to its environment. In my class, I had students draw randomly from a list of environments (included in last page of packet) and then research the area and adapt an animal to fit. I also required my students to present their animal to the class. The packet also includes a grading sheet for presentations. However, you can modify this packet to fit
