Army Mission Plan STEM Activity

(0)
Embark on an exciting Army Mission Plan STEM activity where students will work together to design a strategic plan, using math, science, and problem-solving skills to tackle real-world challenges faced by military teams. This resource includes: A full PowerPoint for the teacher to use A bridge building activity A ration plan activity A design electric car activity Instructions for carrying out the activities Intro videos Student sheets Bridge building activity: In this hands-on activity, children will design and build their own bridge using simple materials like paper, tape, and straws. They’ll learn about basic engineering principles, such as how shapes and structures can provide strength and stability. By testing how much weight their bridges can hold, kids will also explore problem-solving and creativity as they adjust their designs to make the strongest bridge possible Ration plan activity: In this engaging activity, children will take on the role of army nutritionists as they create a ration plan to keep soldiers energized and healthy. Using a list of lightweight and non-perishable foods, kids will explore how to balance proteins, carbs, fats, and essential nutrients while designing meals that are easy to carry and eat in the field. This activity helps children understand the importance of nutrition, planning, and the challenges soldiers face when it comes to food. This activity comes with a nutrition information sheet. Electric vehicle design activity: In this exciting STEM activity, children will get to design and draw their very own electric car! Using paper, they’ll plan out the parts of a simple electric car, including the motor, battery, wheels, and axles. This activity fosters creativity and introduces basic engineering concepts, helping kids understand the components needed to make vehicles move.
