Compare observations of criteria constraints and describe the pattern you notice
Free printable Grade 6 science worksheet for "Compare observations of criteria constraints and describe the pattern you notice" — practice engineering design. No-prep, print or assign online.
Middle school students compare observations about criteria and constraints in engineering design problems, learning to describe the patterns that emerge when solutions must meet competing requirements. Teachers can use this worksheet after students have defined a design problem, helping them articulate what counts as success and what limits their options. It sits within the Scientific and Engineering Practices strand and builds the analytical vocabulary engineers and scientists use to frame design challenges.
Learning objectives
- Identify and compare criteria and constraints in given engineering design problems
