STEM Fairy Tales
First grade girls have been busily solving problems to help out a few favorite fairy tale characters, Goldilocks, Rapunzel, and Jack. Girls started by imagining ideas, planning with sketches, and making a materials list. Then they were off and running with supplies to design and improve on their prototypes. How will it work? Will you meet the goal successfully to help our characters?
