Many great critical thinking and problem solving opportunities await.
Vernier Probes
These data gather tools allow for a myriad of student lead investigations in order to find answers to burning questions. Many great STEM Expo projects can be developed using the Vernier Probes. |
Lego Robotics
I often save this project for my oldest students due to its technical nature. Encompassing many high level thinking skills, students are required to build, modify, and program a robot that simulates or models a solution to a real world problem. Science Buddies
Great ideas for STEM Expo, Science Fair, or impressing your classroom teacher. Check it out! |
Independent Investigations and Research Projects
In my groups students may choose to create independent investigations to answer their questions or find solutions to problems they see. This is a great critical thinking endeavor. |
