Flinn STEM Design ChallengeTM
With Digestion Connection, students discover the inner workings of the stomach and its digestive capabilities. Then your students are challenged to design a pill coating that can withstand the stomach’s harsh acidic environment, with a pH so low it can dissolve iron nails! By applying relevant concerns, students engage in a fun activity that integrates biological and engineering skills.

In the cut-throat world beneath the sea, it’s eat or be eaten! Fish Fitness takes cross-fit to a whole new level by allowing your students to craft the ultimate underwater specimen. Using concepts, such as adaptations and survival of the fittest, students learn why body shape influences survival!

Physical attributes of organisms change over time to ensure the survival of a species. For example, what makes one beak better than another? In this activity, students use prede- termined beak designs and put into action a custom beak design to discover which ones perform better with a variety of different food sources and changing environmental condi- tions. Students then analyze the data to create a custom beak that will survive through several generations.

Introduce your students to the fast-paced, growing career of biomedical engineering. In this activity, students observe X-rays of femoral fractures in order to determine what type of break has occurred. Using biomed- ical engineering tactics, students design and construct a medical device to repair the break and then perform “surgery” to repair a model broken femur with their device. This is an activity your students are sure to remember!

This biomimicry kit explores how form
and function of many human products are modeled from attributes observed in the natural world. Students investigate one exam- ple of biomimicry—insulation that is based on how some animals stay warm in a cold envi- ronment—then make observations of their own, finding current examples or new possi- bilities of biomimicry in the natural kingdom. Finally, students create a practical application of the natural phenomenon they observed!
FB2132 | $58.00
In this Flinn STEM Design ChallengeTM, students tackle the real-world problem of waste management. First they construct a basic landfill model to understand how it functions. Students are then challenged to design their own unique landfill that prevents the contamination of the surrounding envi- ronment. This engaging activity models how the engineering design process is applied to solve human challenges in our world.
