Teachers and parents: scroll down to check out the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for this episode! Hosted by: Jessi Knudsen Castañeda (she/her/they/them) Squeaks, Jessi, and the gang are all going on vacation to the lake, but there's a problem. Our friend Juniper needs a boat, and ours is missing! Jessi proposes we think like engineers and gather information to find a way to solve our problem. NGSS: ETS1.A : Defining and Delimiting Engineering Problems A situation that people want to change or create can be approached as a problem to be solved through engineering. (K-2-ETS1-1) Asking questions, making observations, and gathering information are helpful in thinking about problems. (K-2-ETS1-1) Before beginning to design a solution, it is important to clearly understand the problem. (K-2-ETS1-1) Performance expectation: K-2-ETS1-1 Ask questions, make observations, and gather information about a situation people want to change to define a simple problem that can be solved th
