Level Up! (Optional)

  • Ask this story prompt: Can you tell a story about a previous time you’ve presented your ideas and how you did it? (Possible responses include stories about sharing ideas in school, family, and community settings.) Have learners share with a partner (note that the sharing can take forms other than speaking aloud). Consider returning to learners’ ideas at the start of the next adventure. (5 min.)

  • Tell learners, if anyone asks them what they did today, they can tell them “We prepared to share about the space gloves we designed.” (5 min.)

  • Invite family and community members to participate in the Engineering Share-Out by sharing their stories and expertise. (25 min.)
