Design Thinking · Grades 4–6
Design Thinking for grades 4–6.
Making with purpose. Young makers move from following steps to designing their own builds, measuring, and iterating.
Ages 9–12
What grades 4–6 students take away
- Design and build multi-part working models
- Measure, test, and improve systematically
- Use real tools and machines with confidence
- Present builds and reasoning to peers
Inside the Design Thinking & Innovation domain, this band works on age-right versions of the same real builds — same lab, same method, deeper every year. See the full domain for projects, tools, and how it connects to other domains.
