Air Engineering Challenges Elementary STEM Unit (Grades 3-5)

Elementary STEM Units include cross-curricular activities and experiments that teach concepts in math, science, technology, and language arts. In today’s classroom, flexibility is key, and these STEM Units were created to be easily set up and adaptable.

Air Engineering Challenges is a two-week Elementary STEM Unit for Grades 3-5 in which students work in teams of two to four to find out about hydraulic systems. Activities teach students research skills and teamwork. Students design and make an interactive display.

Each unit comes with a unit guide, teacher notes, scope and sequence, teacher’s guide, student pages, assessments, and all the materials needed for a class of 24 students.

See the Air Engineering Challenges Contents resource for part numbers and quantities of included items.
