Let's Make Some Butter ~ Science Lab and Writing/Research Activities
This is a classic activity that kids always love to experience! I am always surprised that so few of them have ever done it before! We usually do this lab while we are studying pioneers in social studies, but it can be done anytime of the year! I get mason jars from Amazon (they are pretty cheap). (about $1 each) We display our Butter Research Projects outside the classroom!

Thanksgiving STEM Challenge and Turkey Craft
Have fun this Thanksgiving with this two part craft/STEM activity. Students first create their own turkey craft with a Styrofoam ball. In the second part, students build a launcher to help the turkey “escape” from the farm. The students start with a simple craft stick catapult and use the engineering design process to improve their designs. This is a super fun way to tie in the holidays, STEM, and science into the curriculum. Want more holiday fun?!? Check out my Thanksgiving Escape Room---
