I am a 2nd grade teacher. I have found that incorporating experiments keeps my students engaged. I try to have them with each unit. If you pinterest (I believe is where I found it), I found a wonderful Toy Story themed STEM activities slide that we have used. My teaching partner and I also designed a Mario Theme activity presentation that we used to teach force with Mario karts (we used the little wheel things from P.E.....I'm not sure what they are called). Music also helps keep students engaged.  Hope this helps!!
