My 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students are budding engineers and artists, full of wonder and creativity! They have a fascination with things that move and are constantly tinkering with materials in our maker and art zones to make things like zip lines, mini catapults, and marble runs. While tinkering, many of our conversations center around how they can improve their designs, and off the cuff lessons in engineering and physics. As an educator that believes in child-centered and hands-on learning, I would like to strengthen this interest and have my students investigate the properties of physics, motion, and kinetics by visually tracking the movement, path, and speed of different objects using LED lights and stop motion photography. The materials in this project would give my students the opportunity to explore and learn science in fun and accessible ways, and hopefully inspire them to continue to pursue STEM/STEAM related endeavors in the future.
