lesson overview

Ultraviolet Light Shelter Engineering Design Challenge: Updated with digital journals!

Students are on a mission to protect an astronaut from ultraviolet light over-exposure in this engaging STEM challenge. Using UV-sensitive beads, students explore how different materials absorb UV light and use the engineering design process to build a UV-safe shelter.

This design challenge allows students to work in teams, apply the engineering design process, and connect science topics to real-world applications. The teacher will provide the structure to the project, but students will take an active role in designing and building their own shelter.

This packet includes:

  • Detailed educator guide with links to resources

  • Photos of student project examples

  • Student handouts including an Ultraviolet Light information sheet

  • STEM Career Connection: Meteorologist

  • Student recording packet for each step of the engineering design process

  • Editable pages in Google Slides with a digital and printed journal versions

  • Reflection questions

  • Math extension questions in imperial and metric units
