One of our favorite STEM activities - the airplane challenge. #science
Get your students pumped up for spring and STEM! Conduct an experiment to see which water bottle filled with jelly beans will land vertically the most times. Students make a prediction and test their hypothesis. After they have completed their activity, there is time for reflection on what worked and what didn't. It aligns with the NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards).
