Young Inventors / Formula Challenge / Grades 1–2
Imagine.
Calculate.
Invent.
A 28-question Noble Youth Academy STEAM challenge where young learners apply simple formulas to motion, forces, energy, waves, heat, circuits, shapes, measurement and invention. The experience is designed as a real NYA academic assessment—not a separate quiz app.

The same 28 invention-lab questions are available to Grades 1–2 as an enrichment challenge. A child account is not required and progress stays in this browser.
Grade 1 Young Inventors
A supported formula challenge designed as enrichment for early elementary learners. Adult guidance is appropriate when a formula or unit is unfamiliar.
Young inventor skill framework
Use formulas as tools.
Not facts to memorize.
The challenge introduces relationships between quantities through concrete invention-lab scenarios and simple arithmetic.
Learning note: This is an enrichment challenge for Grades 1–2, not a state assessment or placement test. Some formulas intentionally introduce ideas students may normally meet later; adults can help explain vocabulary and units while allowing the child to do the arithmetic reasoning.
