Unit Overview
In this unit, kids dive into aeronautical engineering by designing models of flying technologies that help NASA collect aerial photographs. Kids will learn that scientists and engineers often study harsh environments here on Earth (like the largest desert in the world, the Empty Quarter) to understand the environments they might encounter in space. | ![]() |
The On-the-Go Kit includes everything one student needs to complete the challenge and practice thinking like an engineer. |
ComponentsThe Virtual Learning Edition provides the instruction and support teachers need to make the engineering adventure engaging and motivating for students. The unit’s three-part structure makes virtual teaching and learning flexible and easy to navigate.
Individual On-the-Go Materials Kits make learning hands-on and fun for students, even when learning in a virtual learning environment. The On-the-Go Kit includes everything one student needs to complete the challenge and practice thinking like an engineer. |
