Track Modeling STEAM Program
Created Exclusively for 4th-8th Graders
Our Track Modeling Program is aligned with Next Generation Science Standards and uses the Three-Dimensional Learning Model framework. Through science and engineering practices, crosscutting concepts and disciplinary core ideas, students conceptualize, design and build a scale BMX track.
Students start by reviewing still images and videos of different tracks from around the world to fuel ideas and creativity before they create sketches of their own track vision. Next, they meet virtually with an Elite Level Pro BMX Rider to ask questions to help shape their concepts. From there, students form teams to share their individual ideas for a collaborative team-designed track. Still in their groups, they formulate questions to submit to a BMX track builder.
As part of the culminating event, students’ work is displayed and evaluated by a community panel. USA BMX Foundation provides all participants awards, along with trophies for the top categories.
