Students compare the structures and functions of traits that enable organisms to survive in a specific environment. Analyzing the traits of animals provides evidence for how those traits vary, how
Students observe the phenomena of a raisin (a.k.a. sewer slug) moving up and down in a carbonated beverage. By having students collect data and calculate averages, math is brought into this long-time
This STEM lesson focuses on science and math. It was written for 6th through 8th grade, but it can be adjusted to fit other grades. It was made for a whole group start, then move into groups of 3-4
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 investigate different counting methods to find out total number of outcomes to be applied in probabilities. They will learn about fundamental counting principle, permutations, and
In this lesson students combine science and math standards to explore the animal adaptation: camouflage. Students engage in discussion, watch a video, complete a hands-on activity, fill out a table
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
Students will research a biome around the world, including 3 animals, 3 plants, and 3 nonliving parts of the ecosystem. Students will construct a diorama of the biome and illustrate a natural disaster
