STEM education plays a critical role in enabling the U.S. to remain the economic and technological
leader of the global marketplace of the 21st century.
To be given opportunities to creatively work with others, and the time to try again when solutions
do not work.
To utilize logical thinking, problem-solving skills, and practical skills.

Another MisconceptionTechnology …is defined as any modifications of the natural world done to fulfill human needs or desires. --STEM Lesson Essentials. Vasquez, Sneider, Comer. Heinemann 2013. p 32.
Demonstration to follow
Tote of Ten
is your Design Challenge
Tote of Ten
STEM K to 2nd Design Brief
Background /Read Aloud: Press Here by Herve’ Tullet. This is a number sense picture book using subitizing.
Design Challenge:
After reading Press Here, by Herve’ Tullet, you will create at least 3 different representations of 10. Each representation must fit on the 3 x 5 index card provided. Then you will design and build a tote to transport your tens.
Criteria: Your Tote of Ten must:• Hold three or more different representations of the value 10• Be closed around the edges, but able to open and close with ease• Have 2 carrying handles• No larger than 6” x 6” ( may view model of the size) • Be colorful, creative and neatMaterials: You may select from these items:index cards card stock construction paper string or yarn paper fasteners/brads rubber bands sticky dots
Tools: Scissors hole punch pushpin paper drill ruler crayons/markers/colored pencils/pencils
Targeted Standard of Learning: Mathematics SOL Listed on your copy
Targeted Standard for Technological Literacy: Standard 9• Students will develop an understanding of engineering design.
Each tool is important unto itself as related
to its purpose
Just as eachsubject has a related purpose
Gone are the days when it was expected that we teach subjects in isolation
When designing your lessons, make it worth your while.
Intensify the lesson by combining what works well together.
Mix it Up!
add a dash of ______ and a pinch of_______!
Like all recipes…
Enjoy the experience, there are many ways to accomplish an excellent, tasty STEM design brief.
Just like you tweak a recipe after tasting it; know that is okay to do the same with a STEM design brief.
