Solar Updraft Tower
In this lesson, students will construct a solar updraft tower. They will use heat lamps to warm the air inside the tower, resulting in the propeller spinning. This lesson helps students gain a better understanding of how energy transfers from the sun to the air, causing the molecules to warm up and become less dense.

This is a multiple-day lesson plan based on Newton's 3 Laws of Motion. Students begin the lesson by collecting data observing coins moving across a table. After making the observations, students will
This STEM lesson takes place in a science classroom after students have explored the differences between substances (in the solid, liquid, and gas states), and energy transfer. It is intended to last
Students will use science and engineering practices to design and build a parachute out of everyday items. The parachute must be able to carry a metal washer to a specific target on the ground while
