Edventures 60 Seconds or Less Program

In this STEM enrichment program, students test their engineering and physical science knowledge as they compete in a series of progressive challenges that last just one minute! Using everyday materials, they demonstrate energy conservation by rolling marbles over tape and seeing whose goes the farthest. They display an understanding of air pressure by making cups fly highest!

The engaging, competitive challenges are perfect for the classroom, makerspaces, or afterschool programs. Curriculum guides students through twelve 1-hour sessions. Accommodates 30 students. Recommended for Middle School.
