We had the best time learning about the principles of flight and (attempting) to build a flying machine out of household items! After watching 'Twas the Night Before Liftoff', we learned about lift, weight, thrust, and drag and were determined to hold a little flying machine STEM challenge in

How do birds fly? How can planes carry so much cargo and still fly? What are the principles of flight? With the Flight Family Unit Study, you will learn all of this and more through hands-on fun! In this post, I'm going to share the 10 topics from our Flight Family Unit Study and the

How Far Can Your Blow a Cloud? Or perhaps a cotton ball? I feel like measurement is one of those skills that are best formed with experience and real hands-on activities. Such as, you're rearranging your room. How much space do you need for your desk? Or comparing the lengths of dinosaurs. I think kids

Looking for a fun STEM Challenge introduce green energy and ingenuity. One of our all time favorite read alouds is The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind by William Kamkwamba and Bryan Mealer. We created a Windmill STEM Activity where students investigate design and build 2 windmills and test which works better.

Explore the season with a Halloween STEM activity. Let’s make a flying bat paper airplane that is fast to craft and fly!
