Lesson 7 Make It Happen! Students continue experimenting. They create the conditions to have their car be stopped by the bad wolf and to knock the wolf over by adjusting their ramp height and weight. S4P3.b., S4P3.c, S4P3.d
Day 7: Presenting the Activity: 10 Students will be creating their own engineering design plan. Student Exploration: 30 Students will make 2 design plans. Day 8: Sharing and Interpreting: Discuss student explorations RM 10
During Class: Wolf Tails –Knock the Wolf over (RM 8) Wolf Tails- Leave the Wolf Standing (RM 9) Revisit the story and question the students on how the sled material may affect reaching the big bad wolf “The Best Crasher”-Each child designs the car they think will crash the best. (RM 10)

Make it happen! Engineering Design Experience Build & Test Lesson #7 How could the pigs that made sleds out of straw and twigs improve their designs? Even though the pig that made a sled out of bricks knocked down the wolf, how might he improve his design?
