Teach Mindfulness to Students with the Gratitude Tower STEM Challenge!
Students learn the importance of being thankful with the Gratitude Tower STEM project! In this Mindfulness STEM Challenge, students write out what they are thankful for on index cards and build a tower with their cards.
The more things they are thankful for, the bigger the tower. This is an excellent STEM Challenge to teach kids about gratitude around Thanksgiving!
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.
