STEM Lesson Plans

Students will get the opportunity to engage in scientific research, studying sustainability and fuel options, while creating models to represent their knowledge.

This is a four day lesson where students work in groups to design a fixture using LEGO bricks that holds a marker in an upright position while attached to their Edison Robots. Students code the robot

This lesson introduces students to coding with Edison Robots and EdScratch. The coding skills that are required for this lesson are basic, and will help students complete Part 2 of this lesson "Animal

Students will model examples from 3 of the 4 Macromolecule Groups, then film themselves describing their models with specific information about both the model and the Macromolecular group it is from

Students use research and observations to plan an ideal area for our school chickens. Students build the needed structures and work together to create the chickens' home.

In this geometry/coding lesson, students embark on an exciting journey with Elsa and Anna from Frozen using Code.org. The lesson introduces fundamental coding concepts through interactive puzzles and

Through guided lessons and research, students generate their own circuit review questions by creating a board game that requires designing and building several circuits.

Students will apply STEM principles to design and build a working circuit in the shape of a heart, incorporating science concepts, technology tools, engineering skills, and mathematical calculations.

In this lesson, students will explore how temperature and pressure can each affect the states of matter. Students will develop a plan and a hypothesis, and will the conduct their experiment to analyze
