STEM Lesson Plans

This lesson aims to introduce students to the fundamental concepts of geometry through the lens of architecture. Students will explore the properties of geometric shapes, study famous architectural

Are your students fans of Formula 1? If they are or aren't this lesson will take a look into the dominance of Red Bull Racing in Formula 1. Why is Red Bull so dominant? Is it the driver or the

This lesson plan is on how to make agar plates to grow media on. This teaches the students how to measure out the agar and water and mix properly and plate the agar properly.

In studying science, we are limited by the bounds of our own senses when collecting data. By developing technology that allows us to enhance and extend our senses, we can study things we would not

This lesson is designed to uderstand the stages of mitosis by integrating Virtual Reality (VR) in the classroom. The students will be able to identify and describe the key events in each stage of

Students are guided through the urgency to create large scale plan solutions for climate mitigation and green energy fuel sources. They will then build and design a bioreactor using algae as a

Students use what they know about similar triangles to create a problem. They will use laser pointers and a small mirror to create a problem requiring students to point the laser beam at the mirror to

Students will explore the historical use of natural pigments by indigenous peoples, particularly those native to the Southwest region. They will use mathematical concepts to paint using the pigments

Students will understand and apply geometric concepts such as symmetry, angles, and scaling in the context of labyrinth design.

In this engaging and interactive lesson, high school students (grades 10-12) will explore the fascinating world of molecular geometry using the PhET "Molecule Shapes" simulation. The lesson is

Students will design a floor plan for a house and use area and volume to calculate the dimensions of their floor plan. They can also have the option to create a wooden model of their design.

This lesson has students create a unique graphical visual of the components of blood within a vial. These components of blood are then researched and used as a control for accomplishing two

This STEM Argumentative Research Project engages students in exploring the scientific, ethical, and societal implications of themes in Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein." Students will work in groups to

Students will apply principles of design, engineering, and mathematics to create a physical or digital labyrinth inspired by the myth of Theseus. This project integrates STEM concepts with literature

In this lesson, students use microscopes to find cells in the different stages of the cell cycle.

This is a week-long set of lessons building on the structure and function of skin. The first few days will have students using technology to complete research. Students will also explore the

In this lesson, students will explore the key physics principles that govern the design and operation of street lighting systems. Through a hands-on engineering design challenge, students will apply

A look at all of the anatomy homeostatic responses that the body has. Each section has a lab or calculations.

This is a lesson plan which draws importance to the ability of trees to carbon sequester in urban areas. As the world urbanizes more and more each day, it is important for our health to emphasize

In this lesson, students physically manipulate a couple of springs and then collect data from a spring force Phet simulator. Next, they graph the data, calculate the area under the curve of their

This outstanding multi-day lesson covers the anatomical design of the respiratory system. Students will work on a basic model project to simulate breathing action and the diaphragm. They will also

Teachers will be introduced to the VEX V5 Robotic Platform. We will start with an Introduction to robotics and how robotics is used in industry. Students will understand the key resources they will be
