"Helping to bring mathematics and engineering to life, these challenging lessons give teachers an exciting tool for engaging advanced learners through creativity and hands-on products. Units are driven by standards and invite students to become baseball field architects, create flying jellyfish, make a gnome hat parachute, scale skyscrapers and more! Each project includes step-by-step lesson plans with reproducible templates, time estimates, and a materials list. While centered on STEAM competencies, true to real-world experiences, these hands-on projects span the curriculum - including writing and public speaking - and while they suit entire classrooms and smaller groups, they can also be easily adapted to individual projects for independent study and home school"-- Introduction -- The jellyfish flier -- Pikes peak math -- Baseball field landscape architects -- Cones and gnome hat parachutes -- Nametag math project -- Scaling skycrapers.
