What if you could challenge your sixth graders to design an amusement park for children of tomorrow to safely enjoy? With this volume in the STEM Road Map Curriculum Series , you can!
Amusement Park of the Future outlines a journey that will steer your students toward authentic problem solving while grounding them in integrated STEM disciplines. The series is designed to meet the growing need to infuse real-world learning into K– 12 classrooms.
This book is an interdisciplinary module that uses project- and problem-based learning. Drawing on their previous experience with amusement parks or carnival rides, students will work in teams to do the following:
• Connect these experiences with a variety of science and social studies concepts, including energy transfer, ratios and rates, technical texts, multimedia communications, historical inquiry, and the influences of technology on society.
• Use mathematics and English language arts to research the background and designs of amusement parks.
• Create blueprints of their models, build and test small-scale prototypes, and develop cost-benefit analyses.
• Design marketing plans and infomercials to promote their models.
The STEM Road Map Curriculum Series is anchored in the Next Generation Science Standards , the Common Core State Standards , and the Framework for 21st Century Learning. In-depth and flexible, Amusement Parks of the Future can be used as a whole unit or in part to meet the needs of districts, schools, and teachers who are charting a course toward an integrated STEM approach.
