Engineering

Grade Lvl:K-5

In this hands-on lesson, students are challenged to design a sled that travels the greatest distance possible. By exploring the forces of friction and air resistance, learners gain valuable insights to inspire their unique sled designs. Students love the excitement of watching their sleds race down a slippery slope, seeing how far they can go! This interactive activity is always a student favorite, making science and engineering both fun and memorable.

How can we design a sled that can safely slide down a slope?
