Stem Baloon Race Car Kits For Middle School Elective Class

My Project

These balloon car kits are perfect for my elective gifted and talented students. They take my class to do projects they wouldn't usually get to do in their general education courses, and this is the perfect type of project for my 6th and 7th-grade students. We have an entire month dedicated to engineering; most of my kiddos love this unit. This would be a fun, new project to roll out and continue to grow interest in the field of STEM. My students love school, learning, and being challenged, and they take my class for that reason!
