ENGINEERING DESIGN PROCESS UNIT

"Over the past several weeks, students have been learning about the Engineering Design Process in STEAM and how it can be used to problem solve, both in school and in our daily lives. Last week, students had the scenario of trying to save poor Sam, a not-so-smart gummy worm who forgot to wear his life preserver on a boating trip. Everyone had fun with this hands-on learning assignment, and thankfully Sam was saved! (That is, until he was eaten by the scientists!)" -- Mrs. Copeland
