Dumb Ways To Die... On Mars!
Dumb Ways to Die… On Mars is a STEAM program, modified and designed to make STEAM programming accessible to underserved and low-income communities. Each component of the project can be done at little to no cost, and participants learn about the engineering process, write a letter to NASA, build a Mars rover, and expand on critical problem-solving skills all to answer the question: how do we, as humans, survive on Mars? The project includes lesson plans, an in-depth PowerPoint presentation, and ELA and math standards, all downloadable for free from an easily-accessible website.
