This includes my whole unit of a four week lesson on the Universe. I was quite fascinated with the amount of resources available for us from NASA and ESA to help teachers in keeping the students

In this lesson, students will explore the cell membrane as the selective “gatekeeper” of the cell, regulating the movement of substances to maintain balance and homeostasis. Using both virtual reality

Students will construct a wind turbine, gauge energy efficiency and durability. Students will then reflect on their data. This leads to a great discussion on different methods for capturing energy.

In this lesson, students will engage in a hands-on STEM project where they design and construct a model city made from Legos that is powered by renewable solar energy. Using the engineering design

Students explore the heat island effect by investigating surface temperatures around their school grounds. They will utilize various technology to conduct the investigation, as well as collect and

With this lessons, students code a Sphero to practice plotting points and identifying quadrants on a coordinate plane. This is a great way to combine technology and math into a hands-on, engaging

Students use an engaging virtual simulation and data sets to determine the composition of our Sun.

In this lesson, students will learn about biomimicry—the design and production of materials, structures, and systems modeled on biological entities and processes. Students will explore examples of

In this lesson, 4th grade students will explore foundational coding concepts and develop problem-solving skills by navigating programmable robots or coded paths through mazes. Students will learn
