STEM Space Lander Math & Engineering Activity (Printed & Digital)
Space Lander STEM ChallengeThis STEM activity is one of our favorite engineering design challenges! The combination of marshmallows (or ping pong balls) and aliens makes this a winning STEM challenge! In the Space Lander Challenge, student teams build a lander using the engineering design process to keep two marshmallow "aliens" or "astronauts" inside a cup as it is dropped from various heights. Using straws, index cards, and mini marshmallows or cotton balls, students apply concepts of shock ab

Math Task - Proving ALL Triangles Equal 180 Degrees
This is a Mathematics lesson based on the New Common CORE Standards. It addresses 7th grade standard 7.GB.5 but I have used it with my 5th grade class. It is meant as a problem solving task for students to introduce them to solving for the unknown angle of a triangle. The lesson presents them with a theory that all angles of ANY triangle when added will equal 180 degrees. They will then work in small groups to either prove this is correct or incorrect. At the end of this lesson students will und
