Build a School Garden
This is the first of 4 lessons where students will propose and configure a school garden using criteria given by the principal. Students will work in groups of 3 to determine configurations. They will use what they know about fractions to share the space of the garden equally and determine the area and perimeter of each possible configuration. Students will then participate in a class discussion about their problem-solving strategies.

Go through different STEM, reading, and writing activities with Roz and her friends in The Wild Robot. Students will problem solve, participate in discussions, and learn about artificial intelligence
Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
This STEM lesson is designed to explore electrical circuits and engage in a hands-on activity to create, label, and identify the differences between parallel and series circuits. Students will develop
