We are so lucky that we have boxed kits for science and have access to awesome curriculum! Science Projects 1. We did a STEM engineering "Build a Parachute" project. Students thought about what materials and sizes would make a good parachute. We used coffee filters, felt, and plastic and later tested the parachutes we designed. The materials all came in the Foss Science Kit, but you can find more information here: https://www.teachengineering.org/activities/view/design_a_parachute if you want to do this in your class! 2. Foss mixtures and solutions project. In our mixtures and solutions unit we are thinking about how to create mixtures and separate water from salt, water and gravel, and water and powder.
