Design Cycle Chart - Free Download & Project Idea

We use the design cycle as we are doing STEM challenges in our classroom.  We often talk ourselves through the design cycle as we are doing the challenges.  I have given out the chart for kids to complete on their own or as a group and I have projected it on the board at the front of the class as we are talking our way through the cycle.  Both work well!

One of my favorite projects at the beginning of the year is to have kids make their own version of the design cycle.  They have to use all of the correct vocabulary, but they can add their own spin on it!  This project really brings the design cycle to a better level of understanding to the students.  We often use their design cycles in class (they make a black and white version either by hand or on google slides or another computer program).  Click here to purchase that Make Your Own pack.
