Get ready to engineer all things thanksgiving (turkeys, tables, the mayflower and foosball)!most elementary teachers are more comfortable and knowledgeable with theme topics, so i have decided to create stem challenge packs based on specific ones, like thanksgiving!this engineering challenge activity pack is one of many that i have created to. This resource is available individually and bundled with boat building which includes mini mayflower, as well as a second version that dives deeper into data and design analysis in using the scientific method. you’ll also find mini mayflower as part of the discounted thanksgiving and mega stem challenge bundles.. Individually, or in partners/groups, students work against a criteria and constraints list to build a boat that is designed for capacity and/or speed..
