Kids had an absolute blast building the sledding ramps. Teacher across the hall saw what we were doing and bought the bundle, too. Then we had a competition to see who’s “sled” could go the farthest! Awesome fun from an awesome product. Brooke’s STEM products are the best! -inspire love learn

Such a fun an engaging resource! We would complete one STEM activity every Friday as our school did not have a specific science curriculum. My students were SO engaged and learned to be such great problem solvers! I loved it so much I purchased the STEM Challenges All Year Resource. -Heather Hocks

My gems are creative and inquisitive. I carved in special time into our weekly curriculum to celebrate S.T..E.M on Fridays; it fits perfectly with our PBIS Fun Friday activities. We completed the snowball structure challenge and they had so much fun; time flew by without them realizing they didn’t get the extra recess. They didn’t care!? Thank you for this resource. -Esther E G.

I purchased this resource for the build a snowball activity, and it was a blast! Students had a lot of fun working in groups to decide on the best way to build their snowball. There were many lessons we were able to talk about; working together, finding best volume, best structure shape. I loved walking around listening to the groups as they worked. -Heather M.

I used the sled ramps for my 3-5 and hibernation station with my K-2 students. Both were a big success! I love these resources that have everything ready to be used with little to no prep! Both activities were very engaging and the kids had fun! -Molly T.
