As we study ancient history, I remind students that it is very important to learn about our past to understand our present and improve our future. I want students to experience going through an engaging STEM process from home while learning about their past. In an effort to spark students' creativity, I seek to provide each of my students with a cardboard box containing a folder with their STEM challenge instructions along with craft sticks, tooth picks, paper cups, beads, pipe cleaners, glue, clay, and plastic wheels. Students will use the materials to create historical advancements of societies such as a Ziggurat when we study about Mesopotamia, a pyramid when we study about Egypt, a chariot and/or catapult when we study about Greece and an aqueduct and/or Roman roads when we study about Rome. I want to allow my students to be creative and innovative with their own ideas and designs while learning about the past and practicing engineering and mathematical skills. Students are capable of creating mesmerizing things when given the opportunity. I am eager to see what they will build and create as they learn about their past!
