STEAM Tank at Home Challenge: Preparedness and creating a “Maker in Place” Environment at home
This is a Virtual Challenge:
Brainstorm with your family to see if you can invent something new or modify something in your home or solve a problem that exists in and around your home to make your family safe, healthy and overall prepared for unforeseen situations that may occur. Solutions for Pets included. We encourage you to include your parents, brothers & sisters , aunts & uncles, grandparents, and Zoom, WebEx, Google Chat or FaceTime with your friends and classmates.
When you have your ideas complete, or a prototype made, you can post your great ideas and inventions to a google form (found below) that will be uploaded to YouTube & the NJSBA STEAM Tank webpage. Keep in mind, your solutions could help other families. In addition, please send your great ideas to Mrs. Zinn as well! That way, she can follow up with the STEAM Tank Challenge personnel on your behalf.
