Automóviles y camiones Little Engineering STEM (SP) Clase 2: Aerodinámica y alerones

This one-week class will be presented through Nearpod with slides, videos, interactive activities, and games. To get the most out of this week, please try to have at least two toy cars and some track (or something that can act as a track) available.

We will discuss the concept of aerodynamics and how it applies to force and motion in a developmentally appropriate manner.  We will learn about car design and what design features make them fast. After learning the science, our young engineers will design ramps, tracks, jumps, and crash setups to test their designs and experiments.


Cars and trucks naturally engage children's curiosity and teach them science and math without them realizing it! This class introduces kids to STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math), promotes a growth mindset, and develops critical thinking skills. 

Through inquiry-based investigation, guidance, and discussion, students will build, test, and revise their creations.

NGSS: K-2-ETS1-2.	Develop a simple sketch, drawing, or physical model to illustrate how the shape of an object helps it function as needed to solve a given problem.
