STEM Lessons and Challenges Grade 5

Develop your fifth grade students’ creative problem-solving skills with STEM Lessons and Challenges. Students apply science, technology, engineering, and math concepts to solve real-world problems.

Every grade 5 unit is focused on a hands-on challenge and guides students to work together as engineers to design, prototype, test, and refine their creations.

• The 15 grade-appropriate STEM challenges target life, earth, and physical science concepts.
• Every unit is focused on a hands-on challenge in which students apply the STEM process of plan, create, test, and redesign.
• No-prep lessons and easy-to-find materials help you fit STEM learning into the busy school day.
• An answer key is not included, since there isn’t one correct answer or solution to solve the problem or complete the challenge.

Each unit provides everything you need to guide your students in completing the hands-on challenge, including:

• Teacher overview pages and material lists
• Reading selections for background knowledge
• Visual real-world examples
• A STEM challenge overview
• Design process worksheets and
• A redesign page to evaluate their design

Examples of STEM challenges and science topics from Grade 5 include:

• Mousetrap (Life Science Concept: Simple Machines)
• Oil Spill Boom (Earth Science Concept: Buoyancy/Properties of Oil)
• Remote-Control Game (Physical Science Concept: Compound Machines)
