What is a KBLOG ALERT?

What is a KBLOG ALERT?

Interesting, exciting and timely educational material often catches my attention. This includes upcoming webinars and science competition announcements. I have gathered many teaching tools from participating in webinars and I feel, as I will blog about them later, that science competitions should be a part of the life of students. When I do find any time-sensitive material relevant to helping educators and their students I will pass those on in my KBLOG ALERTS.

ALERT NOTICE

Ping Pong Pickup Challenge (Science Buddies, due March 19, 2023)

K-12 students worldwide are invited to give engineering a try with the annual Engineering Challenge from Science Buddies. Announced every January, the Science Buddies Engineering Challenge lets students use their problem-solving skills to design, build, and test contraptions. The challenges use simple materials and are free for all to participate. Try this year's challenge, and you may win a cash prize for your school or nonprofit!  The website has great lesson plans for all levels (K-12) and a video that clearly shows what the competition is about. I love this and it is FREE.
