STEM Lesson Plans

Barbie is an adventure seeker to the max! She loves the thrill of death defying activities. She believes the adrenaline rush makes her hair more lustrous and keeps a brilliant smile on her face; so

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.

Students will use projectile motion as practical example to better understand how parabolas (quadratic equations) are built. Students will also tabulate x and y values on Google Spreadsheets and graph

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

In this lesson, students will explore the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance in an electrical circuit. Using a PhET Simulation, they will collect data and graph voltage vs current

In this real-world STEM lesson, students take on the role of product planners at Apple to determine the optimal production mix of iPhone 16 colors that maximize profit while considering demand

This lesson can be used as a formative assessment on Static Equilibrium of a horizontal meter stick that has two masses hanging from the meter stick. One of the mass values is provided, the 2nd mass

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

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

This is a high school level project that covers food webs, nutrition cycling, and human intervention in ecosystems. This gives students a hands-on, real-world look at a water system in their backyard.

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

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

This is an introduction to exoplanets and their discovery. In the hands-on activity, students make a lightcurve for an exoplanet transit using data from the DIY MicroObservatory Telescope Network.

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

A lesson on what diabetes is, what is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, creating a food diary, how the sugar gets into cells, how to count carbs, and how people with Type 1 diabetes

Students will dive into the fascinating world of parasitology as they collaborate in teams of three to analyze and evaluate the presence of parasites. The lesson aims to enhance both teamwork and

This project sets students up to explore animal anatomy and physiology with the idea of replacing a lost appendage (beak, leg, tail, fin, etc.) This is used in small groups of 2 or 3 over the course

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

This is best for high school AP/IB/Honors Biology students for using clay and miscellaneous items to model and then film their model of Cellular Respiration to better understand how the Electron

Students measure the temperature of water as it cools to learn about heat transfer and thermal properties while using line of best fit, linear regressions and/or quadratic regressions.
