What age are the design process worksheets for?

These are written for 3rd Grade students, roughly ages 8-9. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.

Can I use these design process worksheets for homeschool?

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 3rd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.

3rd Grade The Design Process Worksheets

Ages 8-9 · Free previews · Print-ready PDFs

Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

The engineering design process is the cycle of steps engineers use to solve a problem: ask, imagine, plan, create and improve. This 3rd grade design journal spreads one challenge over two pages: the problem and what the design must do, sketches of three ideas and a choice, a materials list, a table for three tests and what happened, and what to change and why. It is an open journal page with no answer key.
