To highlight the engineering design process, now part of our Science Standards, we used a picture book A Snowy Day by Keats, with 5th grade classes, to demonstrate identifying a problem, brainstorming potential solutions, and choosing one problem to solve by planning, creating, testing and modifying. Students worked in groups, choosing from a selection of picture books, and a variety of materials, following the engineering design process through to an inventive solution. Enjoy their creativity!
