This introductory piece is designed to transition students from passive learning to active problem-solving by defining STEM and launching their first design challenge.

A standard "Lesson 1" introduces the cycle of innovation that professional inventors use: What is the problem we are trying to solve?

To make "Lesson 1" more approachable, educators often use . By reading a book or watching a narrative video, students can identify a problem a character faces and use their STEM skills to "engineer" a solution for that character. StkeHMM Lea1 mp4

Test the creation, identify what failed, and redesign it. 3. Kickoff Activity: "The Flight Challenge"

Brainstorm all possible solutions without judgment. Plan: Select one idea and draw a detailed diagram. Create: Build a prototype using available materials. This introductory piece is designed to transition students

It is an interdisciplinary approach that integrates four key pillars to solve real-world problems.

A common first activity involves basic aerodynamics to demonstrate STEM in action. By reading a book or watching a narrative

Understanding the four forces of flight— Gravity, Lift, Thrust, and Drag .
