I have noticed that many teachers want to plan engineering lessons in their classroom. I have some tips to hep get you started or to make your lessons more meaningful. </div>
<div class="separator" id="ssnoshadow" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" id="ssnoshadow" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was a third and fourth grade teacher for many years. I moved to fifth grade math and science at our middle school and spent three years focused on two content areas. This year I am now teaching engineering and technology. I have about 400 students and see my students every day for one trimester. My curriculum is based on 6 modules: Engineering 101, Material World, Do the Rot Thing, Innovations and Inventions, Love That Dirty Water, and Simple Machines/Chain Reactions. I have learned so much this year about engineering and technology. During the day, I have opportunity to reflect and improve my lessons as I teach them. My modules are in Google slides and include everything I need. </div>

1. Engineering is science and includes standards. Think about <b>STEAM </b>as you plan<b>. </b>I planned my units around our fifth grade Massachusetts science curriculum and added in some math standards.</div>
<div class="separator" id="ssnoshadow" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>What standards are you addressing?</li>
<li>What do students need to research/learn about to be successful while going through the process?</li>
<li>How can you make this challenge rigorous for all your learners?</li>
</ul>

<div>
6. Know the difference between a <b>Warm-up</b> and a <b>Challenge</b>!!!! </div>
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>A warm-up is something done to get students comfortable working in groups. It may be used to get them familiar with a material. These are popular at the beginning of the year or at the start of the lesson. </li>
<ul>
<li>I know that many teachers use tower challenges with all kinds of materials like spaghetti, blocks, cups, newspaper, etc. I start my term with a tower challenge that leads into structures and building building. </li>
</ul>
<li>Warm-ups are fun but should be meaningful.</li>
<li>Challenges include the steps of the Engineering Design Process: problem, Research/Brainstorm, Build, Test, Improve, and Communicate. </li>
<li>Challenges can be integrated into all subject areas.</li>
</ul>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Our fifth graders have to take the Massachusetts STE test in the spring. It is a state test that covers grades 3-5 science, technology and engineering standards. As part of a review, I had my classes create basic circuits using batteries, holders, wires, light bulbs and sockets. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I wanted to bring their knowledge to the next level. We then used the snap circuit kits to learn about more complex circuits. My student LOVE them!!! The projects are endless. Please warn your students about the fragile wires on some of the pieces. I had to order some new parts. I am going to learn how to solder.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We read the Science A-Z book on "Setting Up Circuits." My students needed information on resistors and transistors. I buy the annual subscription and find it worthwhile.</div>

It is a true story about a boy in Malawi who made a windmill to generate electricity and water for his village. My students were intrigued with the story. They had so many questions. We watched a video about William.</div>

We brainstormed problems in the story and narrowed down the ones that could be solved with engineering. This lesson is based on <a href="http://www.novelengineering.org/">Novel Engineering.</a> A project that was developed by Tufts University. Please check out their website for ideas and challenges.</div>

<li>Every building piece is the same. </li>
<li>KEVA planks are about 1/4 inch thick, 3/4 inch wide and 4 1/2 inches long.</li>
<li> No sorting or looking for special pieces</li>
<li>You build structures by simply stacking the planks. </li>
<li>No glue or connectors.</li>
<li>Easy clean up.</li>
<li>Made of sturdy maple.</li>
</ul>

The only difference between the two sets below is the contraptions set has two balls and the manuals are different. The contraption manual has some ways to set up ramps. I have both sets.</div>

My students' first challenge with KEVA planks was to build the tallest tower using 50 planks. They all quickly built a tower looking like a Jenga game. I walked around the room with a meter stick measuring and asking them to try another way. How can we get them taller? </div>

This year is totally new for me. Teaching engineering everyday with five classes has been awesome but there are some challenges. One of the struggles is having meaningful activities for groups that finish their work early.</div>

We are getting ready to start our unit on bridges. I wanted to review 3D shapes and parts.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I started with a lesson on the strongest shape, a square or a triangle. I used the AngLegs and gave each group a triangle and a square made w<span style="background-color: white;">ith them. </span>We held them and pushed down on the top of the shape. The square collapsed. The kids quickly saw that the triangle was stronger. I gave them one more angle piece and I asked them if they could make the square stronger. Students added the piece diagonally and identified that the square was made of two triangles.</div>

I then challenged groups to build with straws and connectors. Each group had to make different 3D shapes and test to find the strongest shape. My students love this kit! I highly recommend them. They are very sturdy and would be great for math or recess. </div>

As part of my module, I introduced them to the snap circuits kits. We read about setting up circuits using the Science A-Z book, Setting Up Circuits. The kit projects are endless. They made buzzers, voice recorders, sirens, My kids demonstrated the transfer of energy with sound, light, motion using batteries. I just bought the solar panel kit.</div>

If you use snap circuits in your classes, there are some delicate pieces. Please discuss with your students. I learned the hard way. We ended up with a few broken pieces but found a replacement store online.<br />

My OCD kicked in and I decided to get my Lego tubs organized!!!! </div>
<div class="" id="ssnoshadow" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Last summer, I asked my Facebook friends for any Lego donations and had great success. I ended up with a couple of large bins. My intention was to get organized before the school year and then the year began. We are now in November and I finally can breathe and want to get my room running more efficiently. </div>

I purchased this sturdy cart from <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002OHDTMI/ref=asc_df_B002OHDTMI5278175/?tag=hyprod-20&creative=394997&creativeASIN=B002OHDTMI&linkCode=df0&hvadid=167123227090&hvpos=1o20&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15753541235028369538&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9001868&hvtargid=pla-189644025652">Amazon</a>. The drawers can be pulled out and carried to work spaces. The cart is also portable and can be moved wherever the kids are working. I am making labels for the drawers. The drawers come in clear, black or multi-color. I bought the clear. I really wanted to see inside the drawers and it would also bug me if the color drawer did not match the Legos inside.</div>

When gluing, use wax paper on top of cardboard or foam board. Use a craft glue, I bought the new Elmer's Glue All and small refillable bottles. I did not use the hot glue gun until the last day for any emergency repairs. We worked in stages and spent three days building.<br />

There are so many materials that your students can use to construct bridges. I started my classes off with a video from Mystery Science about the Golden Gate Bridge. <a href="https://cloud.mysteryscience.com/image/asset/logo-stacked-9b9b86c7752288073e875602a8116e5d.png">Mystery Science</a> is a new website that is amazing!!!! You can sign up for a free trial for one year and then they require a paid subscription. Our school has purchased it for our teachers. The videos are engaging, interactive and give science lessons a real purpose/connection. The lessons are aligned to the NGSS standards and come with lessons and resources. The website is for K-5. I teach fifth grade and used the lesson for third and found it was appropriate and aligned to my engineering standards.</div>

My students used paper to construct bridges and tested them for strength using pennies. It was a great starting point to observe failure points and introduce vocabulary. The recording sheet is available on their website.</div>

I am a little behind in my blogging! I am teaching my dream job this year, fifth grade engineering. They have a STEAM special block and have one semester of engineering. I will service about 400 students this year!!! I have been so busy planning/implementing a new curriculum, running a maker-space club, participating in school council and co-chairing our elementary science committee. </div>

My first module was called Engineering 101. It was an introduction to engineering, technology and structures. Our first challenge was to construct the tallest tower with a specific list of materials. You can adapt the materials for your grade level and what you have available. </div>

My room was a computer lab and I wanted it to have a center/flexible seating feel. I had the long computer tables and remaining desktop computers removed. I had to scrounge up furniture that was already in the building and was given some round and rectangular tables and I also managed to get some high tables that were used for drafting.</div>

I wanted to plan a special day and our team decided to make it a STEAM event. Our team has 16 homerooms so we broke into groups of four. The students rotated through the four classrooms and completed many lessons and activities that were related to 1000.</div>

<b>Kick-Off</b>- They read "Sadako and the 1000 Cranes" prior to the day. We collected dimes for the whole week and challenged them to raise $100. We counted our dimes each day and discussed powers of ten. Our vice-principal was running the Boston Marathon for cancer and we donated our money. We raised over $400. The students made paper cranes and started an Acts of Kindness Wall.</div>

We have 16 fifth grade homerooms in our school....yes 16!!!! That is a lot of teachers and students. We work on teams and I teach math and science. If every class had 5 games that would be way too many games to manage. We decided that our carnival could have 40 games. Each team could submit only 5 games.</div>

<div class="separator" id="ssnoshadow" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We gathered our two homerooms together and had a powerpoint introducing carnival games and how they are played; tossing, spinning, aiming, throwing, etc. The games had to include at least 3 recyclables and the game theme had to incorporate a theme/topic learned during the fifth grade school year. The photos are examples of games from Google.</div>

<b>Designing and Building</b></div>
<div class="" id="ssnoshadow" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Our students broke themselves into groups of 3 and 4. They planned and designed their games and were given time(about one week) to bring in their recyclables and extra materials. I was amazed at the creativity and variety of things chosen. Once we had enough materials we were ready to move on.</div>

<div class="" id="ssnoshadow" style="clear: both;">
<b>Testing and Redesigning</b></div>
<div class="" id="ssnoshadow" style="clear: both;">
We discussed that there had to be a way of winning the game and it should not be too easy or too hard. We went through a lot of masking and duct tape!!! This step lasted a few days.</div>

I wished I took more pictures...the games were amazing! The kids had a bracelet with number 1-40 and got punched after playing the game. They could only play once. If they won, they got a ticket designed by the students of each game. Teacher collected tickets and the class with the most tickets won a prize.<br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">I was recently contacted by Scholastic
Magazine and asked to come up with a creative lesson or idea using their
DynaMath magazine, for students in grades 4-6.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I was so excited and then panic set in immediately.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My thoughts were, “How can I come up with an
original idea for Scholastic?”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They sent
me the magazine and as soon as I opened it up, the ideas came pouring out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The magazine is full of high interest stories
that are current, with amazing graphics and information. The stories include math connections, but can
easily be used in other content areas including science, language arts, and social
studies. We are using STEAM in my school and this magazine is a perfect fit. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

may have become a little addicted to “Pokémon Go” over the summer and many of
my fifth graders are still obsessed. I work in a Middle School setting and making connections with kids is important. What better way than something that they love?</span><br />

I have to be honest...I have always had a hard time understanding and enjoying physical science. I was dreading teaching this unit to my fifth graders. It is only one standard, the force of gravity pulls everything toward the center of the Earth. Once I got started developing lessons, there was no getting me down!!!</div>

My first science unit was Matter. One of our NGSS standards is conducting an experiment to determine whether the mixing of two or more substances results in a new substances. I filled the balloon and attached to a bottle with vinegar. They made observations on the liquid and the solid in the balloon. They did not know what the substances were. We shook the baking soda into the bottle and instantly the balloons filled with the gas, carbon dioxide. My students could identify that it was a chemical change.</div>
