Ways to use this resource:

1. Use it with open-ended supplies. Although a restricted Supplies List is offered within the resource, you can choose for your kids to find their own supplies. This might mean gathering items from outside, walking around the house, or heading to the Dollar Store! The benefit with this method is that there’s no wrong answer. The sky’s the limit!

2. Turn this into a small group challenge. Since there are 3 weather-related problems, divide your family or co-op into 3 teams! Each team has to design a solution as quickly as possible OR design one that works the best. Have fun with this!

So what’s included?

-3 possible solutions to the problems through engineering

-Custom-designed Project Pieces

-Teacher and Student Guides on how to make the project

-Learning Pages introducing and developing the NGSS topics through an animal story

-Exit Ticket and Answer Key
