My Project

Students build cars and houses using popsicle sticks and glue gun. The materials will be used for STEM challenges involving creating cars or houses. The students will also compete with each other in STEM challenges. Giving students the materials they need to build and ask questions about models they have built.

The purpose of the project is to allow students the opportunity to use their critical thinking skills to solve real-world problems.

This also allows students to explore opportunities in STEM, learn new things, and be creative. Students need notebooks to take notes.
