The main STEM learning outcomes of the class are: 1) creative problem solving through engaging, exploring, questioning, explaining, elaborating and evaluating 2) persisting even when encountering an unexpected and difficult challenge (Growth Mindset) 3) recognizing opportunities for improving the design even after you think you're "done" 4) using creativity and imagination to generate and extend a design beyond an initial idea 5) implement Next Generation Science Standards, Common Core Standards for Mathematics
As a mom, I have played with Hot Wheels throughout my kid's elementary years. As a teacher, I have taught this unit of study to fourth grade students, and have adapted the curriculum to fit ages 3-9 years old as well.
