Jack chopped down the beanstalk, but he forgot the harp and the hen!
How can we help Jack return to the Giant’s castle to get those golden eggs?
Open the door to critical thinking using math, science, and the engineering design process to solve some big problems faced by characters in several classic fairy tales. This workshop will transport PreK - 8 teachers through an engaging story of a girl and her dog as they explore the power of hydraulics, pneumatics and more to design and deliver engaging cross-curricular lessons.
Join us for hands-on, minds-on, collaborative fun. You’ll walk away with tools, tricks and plenty of supplies to instantly weave new activities into your lesson plans.

This workshop is part of the STEMAZing Workshop Series. The STEMAZing Project’s philosophy on teacher professional development is simple: It must be hands-on and engaging – putting the educators in the seat of the students to experience STEM lessons firsthand. It must provide the educators with the equipment and supplies they need to implement the lessons and activities in their classrooms the next day if they choose. It must be facilitated by master educators who have themselves been in the classroom.
