Oil and Water Don’t Mix: Engineering a Solution to Clean Up an Oil Spill
Students will construct a model of an ocean habitat to simulate an oil spill. They will then make observations about the behavior of the oil in the water and on the various items in the habitat model. They will use their observations to test out different materials to clean up the oil and put multiple materials together to clean up the oil in the habitat model. This unit includes four lessons with an accommodation for two lessons of time does not permit.

In this hands-on lesson, students will be challenged to complete an obstacle course with a Sphero/RVR/Edison through coding. Students will be given a task list to complete and will be timed. Math
Quail Farming
Students will learn about the three pillars of sustainability through their quail farm. They will incubate, raise and restock their quails in order for them to be sustainable regardless of what
As an intro to Thermal Energy, students are challenged to create a warmer that will keep my coffee warm. Students project will be tested in class, data will be collected, compared, and graphed.
