Learners will test the strength and efficiency of shapes and materials used in construction.

Students will develop critical thinking skills as they investigate STEAM careers locally and internationally.

Students complete a matching activity to explore how interests and education relate to careers.

Students learn about how to gain experience and be exposed to, or “test the waters,” of careers that align with their personal occupational goals.

Students will use online tools and job search engines to explore career possibilities and the job market.

Students reflect upon the influences on their career path journeys to date and summarize these in an autobiographical poem or Powerpoint presentation.

Triangles are very strong shapes which makes them important when building strong and stable structures

This week's episodes and hands-on activity explore re-engineering.

Students develop and apply comparing & contrasting, observing and predicting skills as they explore the strength of cylinders made with different materials.

5 images of some mass and frame structures from around the world such as the L’Arc de Triomphe gate and the Brooklyn Bridge

11 images of structures with historical significance from different civilizations such as pyramids, statues on Easter Island and Stonehenge

7 images of structures in Canada such as an Inukshuk, CN Tower and the Parliament Building including their locations

8 images including the Statue of Liberty and various towers from around the world such as the Eiffel Tower, CN Tower and Xi'an Bell Tower

Students look for shapes in structures and then build and test different frame structures for strength and stability.

Are you willing to give up a sweet treat for the sake of science? Can you engineer a strong and stable structure out of something soft and fluffy?
