About This Lesson

Open to students in grades 2-10 (but not to students under age 7), the Dreamvention Challenge Contest encourages students to think outside the box and dream up their own amazing inventions. One budding inventor will receive a $250,000 grand prize, and the ten schools with the most contest entries will each receive $5,000 for their science programs. The contest deadline is April 24, 2017, so get started today!
