3D STEM Challenges Classroom Kit Bundle

Everything you need for all eight design challenges in the book — including Engineering Toolboxes

Bring engineering to life with a ready-to-use kit that includes all materials needed to complete every hands-on challenge in the 3D STEM Challenges with Argument-Driven Inquiry for Grades 3 - 5 (NGSS Edition). Each kit supports one full class of students (24 - 30 students) and is classroom-tested to support meaningful STEM learning—without the hassle of sourcing materials.

What’s Included

• Materials for all six STEM challenges (listed below)
• Engineering Toolboxes for each student group — organized tools for building, testing, and revising designs
• Pre-cut, classroom-ready supplies to save prep time
• Optional refill kits available for future classes

Engineering Toolboxes

Each student team receives a toolbox that includes essential tools for safe, efficient engineering design work. Toolboxes are packed and labeled for easy classroom management and include items such as:

• Safety goggles
• Tape measure
• Screwdriver
• Wire cutters
• Scissors
• Glue gun
• Hammer 
• And more — depending on the challenge

These toolboxes are reusable year after year and help students work like real engineers—collaboratively, safely, and efficiently.

Design Challenges Included

• Wire behind a Wall (3-PS2-4)
• Animal Crossing (3-LS4-4)
