Introduction
Let your students’ science learning shine and their creativity soar with The DuPont Challenge Elementary Division!
The STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) gap has been a hot topic in education for several years now. Too few students are showing interest in STEM classes or pursuing STEM-related majors and careers. The DuPont Challenge Elementary Division has been created to help teachers motivate their students to become tomorrow’s STEM-smart innovators. This engaging, hands-on science writing competition provides classrooms with Challenges specifically geared towards each K-5 grade level. The DuPont Challenge Elementary Division is designed to fit seamlessly into your curriculum, with the Challenges based on the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) being adopted by many states throughout the country. From developing healthier snacks to protecting the wildlife in your community and so much more, The DuPont Challenge Elementary Division brings real-world Challenges to the forefront and asks students to solve them using STEM.
