Science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education piques students' innate curiosity and opens their eyes to hundreds of career possibilities. This column presents ideas and techniques to enhance your science teaching. This month's issue shares information about a STEM enrichment project for second graders that incorporates nutrition and design principles. The authors pooled ideas and created the STEM lesson "Designing Healthy Ice Pops." The lesson, designed to take approximately four weeks, would allow students to experience the process of research, design, evaluation, modification, and presentation, skills that are tied to the "Next Generation Science Standards" (NGSS Lead States 2013). In addition, the authors used the "Seven Essentials for Project-Based Learning" (Larmer and Mergendoller 2010) to guide the design process. The "Essentials" stress that a project must inspire students with "a need to know;" have a good driving question; allow learners to have more voice and choice; provide opportunities for 21st-century skills such as collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and use of technology; provide opportunities for feedback and revision; and make schoolwork more meaningful by presenting it to a real audience.
