Solve It STEAM Challenge: Dinosaur Fossils and Prehistoric Models
Darcy Moody
This month, Solve It STEM Challenge is all about dinosaurs. Solve It includes these resources:
A short video that teachers can share with their students to introduce the challenge
A lesson using the Engineering Design Process
The goal is to provide the teachers and students an opportunity to collaboratively design solutions to problems that align to their curriculum with real-world applications.
We would love for you to share what standards you are addressing and some of the solutions your students came up with by emailing us at STEMinfo@maricopa.gov or in the comment section below!
Your Challenge:
Think like a paleo artist and research some of the fossils that have been found here in Arizona. Then design a model or illustration to represent what that dinosaur could have looked like.
