STEM Lesson Plans

Students will explore beginning coding thru binary coding and creating a name bracelet.

In this lesson students will use their climate zone and plant information to create a model of a garden. They will use a variety of charts and graphs to determine what plants will grow best given the

Students will use the Sphero bots to collect and graph data to make a prediction.

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

Students will be using simple equipment to demonstrate the 3 laws of motion. They will be incorporating technology, math, and the scientific method to demonstrate what they know.

In this lesson, students cover concepts like states of matter and chemical changes. Students will apply these concepts to an activity where they will make fake snow. Students will be challenged to

How old is Earth? How big is 1 million years compared to 1 billion years? Students will use three models to organize geologic time and practice cross multiplication to solve for a variable.

This lesson gives students another real life example of Newton's Second Law of Motion. Students will use force diagrams and Newton's Second Law of Motion to find their apparent weight as they

Students will build a paper marble run out of recycled paper which maximizes the time of travel. Students will then analyze the run with energy diagrams and determine how much energy was lost.

This is an introductory activity to reaction kinetics at an AP Chemistry level. Students use model kits or Legos in an activity that allows them to model how changing the concentration of reactants in

The math and research of hot cocoa. Students will find or use a teacher provided hot cocoa recipe and practice working with fractions to increase or decrease the recipe yield.

This lesson is an activity to show how projectile motion and many other motions in nature fallow a parabolic curve. Students will manipulate that knowledge and analyze data using small play tanks to

This lesson includes fourth grade reading, writing, math, science, and engineering standards. The potential is endless with additional enrichment activities. Students participate in the nurturing and

Get ready to learn about density! This is a density lab involving hot and cold-water layering, salt density layers, and a PHET online lab simulation.

Students will be paired up, or a group of three if one odd number, and create a Mom and Dad creature with Dominant and Recessive Traits that get passed on to two offspring through the flipping of a

Students will use the engineering design process to complete 3 challenges. Each challenge gathers data and collects their engineering changes necessary to complete the challenge.

Engage students with competitive activities. Students will be predicting measurements, collecting data, and determining the difference between the estimation and the actual. Students will create la

Students will be divided into 6 groups, one for each of the major systems in the human body, and create a presentation to share with the rest of the class.

This is a hands-on lesson for both science and math exploration. Students use tape to explore the forces between charges and come up with a mathematical expression for how that works! They create a

Students will use multiplication and will measure the area of a lot. This lesson plan uses the standards in science about plants, its size and structure. The leaf size is the focus of this lesson in

This is the 1st lesson in a series of 3. 6th-grade students will work in groups to create eco-friendly inventions that help the environment and tackle climate change. They will research ideas, make

Students will use a known lab to represent photosynthesis in action. They can use this template for the lab and pick another variable to collect data on to complete the story on how photosynthesis

In this outstanding lesson, teachers facilitate students to design and build Meet Edison Robots for Cougar Clash “BattleBot” robot battle classroom tournament. (We named ours Cougar Clash as your

This STEM project allowed students to embark on an exciting journey of entrepreneurship with "Ride to Success." In this immersive STEM lesson plan, students will not only learn the ins and outs of
