Middle school students love to compete. Here's a lesson idea for a competition that will appeal to your student scientists, artists, and poets alike. Standards and connections are offered for middle

This lesson uses a children's literature book called Rosie Revere, Engineer. The lesson is designed to support ELA standards along with Math and SEPs. (Science and Engineering Practices) The initial

Learn about forces and motion while reading the book Sheep in a Jeep and doing activities to determine the average distances of objects in motion.

In this Kindergarten STEM lesson, students explore the concepts of light and shadows using Groundhog Day as a thematic starting point. The lesson begins with an engaging introduction through a SciShow

Students will read and study types of movements and forces. They will draw examples of things that move in different ways. Then they will create a marble painting using the different movements and

In this lesson plan, students explore the ideas of energy transfer between two objects. Students are tasked with making a maze for a marble to run through, using a 3d pen and other materials. Students

Students will learn the importance of clear, precise communication by directing a partner to navigate a drone through an obstacle course. This exercise will draw parallels to writing clear and

Explore the concepts of force and energy transfer by launching rockets of varying weights and observing the resulting flight distances. Gather numerical data on the flight distances of the rockets and

Students will: Construct a pool noodle rocket flinger using provided materials, demonstrating an understanding of the design principles involved. Explore the concepts of force and energy transfer by
