A Makerspace experience for the Holidays! Students are invited to launch their very own startup business just in time for the holidays! In your Makerspace group, invite students to brand, create a

Students will research, design and build a treehouse using the engineering design process. They will practice budgeting by pretending to have $100 to spend by using a supply budget sheet. Students

In this lesson students will learn about the Makey Makey. They will create conductive touch points, record voice in scratch, and connect Makey to create an interactive poster. This can be used for any

This lesson is designed to promote hands-on, project-based learning that connects various disciplines. It emphasizes the importance of real-world applications and encourages students to think

In this activity, students will build a shelter that protects them (cotton balls) from a volcanic eruption of lava and ash.

In this lesson, students will be creating a working model demonstrating Earth’s rotation and revolution. Students will be able to explain the differences between Earth’s rotation and revolution

In this lesson, students will work in groups to design a model that will demonstrate the best erosion techniques for the model of a road experiencing flooding or heavy rainfall. Students will be given

In this lesson students will use everything they've done in parts 1-3 to analyze how mutations affect proteins. Students will build the mutated proteins that they sequenced in part 3. They will test

In this lesson, students will be introduced to mutations in DNA. They will create beaded or illustrated "codes" to represent 5 different mutations to their original protein codes. These codes will be
