January Winter STEM Challenge: Design a Snowflake
Students love completing this winter STEM project! In order to create more snow, they will need to design a snowflake using only the materials provided. This is an engaging winter activity for students to work on during the winter months!
A fun companion activity to go with the winter Read Aloud like Snowflake Bentley by Briggs Martin.
The Engineering Design Process:
Students plan, design, and execute their own ideas. After they have completed their activity, there is time for reflection on what worked and what didn't. They follow the six-step Engineering Design Process: Ask, Imagine, Plan, Create, Experiment, Improve.
Amazing resource for STEM club, STEM teachers, elementary librarians, parents who love hands-on learning, and elementary teachers who want to create a hands-on educational environment in their classroom! This is perfect as a beginning of the year activity or end of the year STEM challenge!
