The Balanced Plate Challenge: Reinventing School Lunches
In this 6th-grade science project, students step into the roles of nutritional scientists to redesign school lunch menus that optimize physical and mental performance. Through biological modeling of the digestive system and mathematical analysis of nutrient density, learners explore how the body transforms food into cellular energy. The experience culminates in a science-based "Revolution Manifesto," where students apply the engineering design process to propose a balanced, budget-friendly menu that satisfies both nutritional standards and adolescent taste preferences.Grade 6Science

From Pen to Profit: The Economics of Children’s Publishing
In this 10th-grade economics project, students step into the role of independent publishers to navigate the financial complexities of the children's book industry. Through the lens of scarcity and opportunity cost, they develop a business model that balances high-quality production with market demand and competitive pricing strategies. By calculating break-even points and analyzing fixed versus variable costs, students culminate the experience by pitching a professional prospectus that explores the risks and rewards of entrepreneurial self-publishing compared to traditional royalty-based models.Grade 10Economics

World Cup 2026: The Elite Footballer Habit Playbook
Students investigate the high-performance habits of elite athletes preparing for the 2026 World Cup to develop their own personalized "Elite Habit Playbook." Through research into nutrition, sleep hygiene, and mental discipline, participants design and implement a sustainable 24-hour routine aimed at achieving peak physical and mental performance. By tracking their progress and reflecting on the biological impacts of these habits, students learn how consistent, small choices lead to world-class results in both sports and academics.Grade 7Other

Who Controls Whom? Navigating Our Digital World
This 6th-grade project empowers students to examine the influence of technology on their daily lives through the lens of global digital citizenship. Using the target language, students track personal tech habits, compare "screen cultures" between the U.S. and a target language-speaking country, and analyze how app designs like algorithms affect their behavior. The experience culminates in a persuasive advocacy campaign where students use imperative commands to promote healthy digital boundaries and regain control over their digital identities.Grade 6Foreign LanguageTechnology

Global Connections: Mastering the Formal Letter of Request
Eighth-grade students transform into professional communicators by researching global experts and crafting persuasive formal letters of request to invite them into the classroom. Through targeted research and the "Linguistic Tuxedo" workshop, students master the nuances of professional tone, business formatting, and the strategic use of the conditional mood. The project culminates in the creation of a "Golden Ticket" letter, demonstrating how sophisticated writing and evidence-based arguments can bridge the gap between academic learning and the real world.Grade 8English

Silent Depths: Engineering Whale-Friendly Sonar Mapping
Seventh-grade students explore the intersection of physical science and marine biology by investigating the impact of sonar technology on whale populations. By analyzing wave properties like frequency and amplitude, students identify how anthropogenic noise interferes with marine communication and survival. The project culminates in the engineering design of a "Whale-Safe" sonar system that balances the technical requirements of seafloor mapping with the ethical necessity of protecting ocean ecosystems.Grade 7Science

Tiny Paleontologists: Designing Tools for the Great Cookie Dig
(5.0)
In this engaging multi-disciplinary project, Kindergarten students step into the role of junior paleontologists to design and test custom tools for a delicate "cookie excavation." By exploring the science of pushes and pulls, students learn to carefully uncover chocolate chip fossils while practicing precision, patience, and collaborative teamwork. Throughout the journey, they document their findings in field journals through drawings and dictation, ultimately showcasing their tools and discoveries in a classroom fossil museum.KindergartenMathEnglish+2

Dino-Designers: Building Shape-Based Habitats for Prehistoric Friends
(5.0)
Kindergarten "junior architects" explore life science and geometry by designing a shape-based backyard habitat for a prehistoric friend. Students investigate the survival needs of dinosaurs and use geometric shapes to construct functional 3D models that withstand Oklahoma’s unique weather conditions. Through a series of sensory labs and engineering challenges, learners select protective materials and create blueprints for their final shoebox habitats. The project culminates in a "Grand Opening Tour" where students demonstrate their communication skills by explaining how their architectural choices meet their dinosaur's specific needs.KindergartenScienceArt+2

Civic Imagineers: Designing the Future of Our City
In this project, 5th-grade students step into the role of "Civic Imagineers" to research, design, and advocate for a transformative change to their city’s long-term future. By integrating social studies and literacy, students explore how the rights and responsibilities of citizenship intersect with economic principles like specialization and interdependence. The experience culminates in a professional advocacy campaign featuring a researched argumentative essay, a data-driven infographic, and a formal "Town Hall" presentation to community stakeholders.Grade 5EnglishSocial Studies

Current Catchers: Designing Passive Plastic Traps for Ocean Gyres
In this 8th-grade science project, students investigate how temperature and salinity drive the "invisible engines" of ocean currents and lead to the formation of plastic-trapping gyres. By mapping the intersection of nutrient highways and garbage patches, students analyze the movement of matter and the ecological impact of marine debris on global systems. The experience culminates in the design of a passive engineering prototype that harnesses natural current energy to capture waste while ensuring the safe passage of nutrients and marine life.Grade 8Science
