What Teachers are saying about Peep Parachute Spring STEM Project:
"I love any opportunity for my students to build in the classroom. They loved the chance to work together and test what they came up with. I loved watching them challenge themselves and deal with working through failure." - Kaitlin Z.
"I used this and the Jelly-Bean Bottle Flipping activity for a STEM day. I plan to use both again, as my students had a great time and had good discussions, particularly about procedures and how variables might have affected their outcomes. " - Elizabeth P.
"My students and I absolutely love these! This one was one of our favorites. They made team names and I created a bracket to figure out our winner!" - Cleyling L.
"Loved this! I used this with my kindergarteners when we worked with 3rd graders on a STEM Day challenge. It went great!" - Kayla L.
