STEM Lesson Plans

Students use Edison robots to create and code a large path (or maze) of their own design for Edison to navigate. Students should already be familiar with Edison robots to be successful in this task.

After learning about Ancient Egypt, students will be able to put their knowledge and skills to use with the Egyptian Pyramid Prototype. Each group will be challenged to build a 4 sided pyramid that

After learning about solar, students will create a device that can be used by the community that will run on Solar energy.

The first part of this lesson reviews the area and perimeter of squares and rectangles using graph paper. Algebraic representations are introduced and students define variables and write equations

This is a four-part lesson that will guide students in groups to create a trackless dark ride. A dark ride is a ride where engineers utilize characters, scenes, and music to tell a story to the rider

Today students will design a mini golf hole. Their hole theme should be based on the inventor they researched.

Introduction to Robotic programming using the Wonder Cue robot with the blaster. Using Block coding or Javascript, teach the students to create a series of instructions that move the robot through a

Students will calculate the better buy to fill a gardening cube with soil. They will need internet access and/or store ads. They will also need to have completed the volume of their gardening cube

Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions

Students will read the novel, "The Lion of Mars", design & launch paper rockets, and then design a sustainable Mars Colony inspired by the novel.

This lesson is an introduction to CAD, possibly leading up to 3D printing. The idea is to be familiar with CAD and more specifically the TinkerCAD application.

In this lesson students will define what a garden is and what it needs to grow. Students will illustrate the parts of a seed. Students will plant a mini soil garden and create a gardening journal.

An exploratory lesson on the relationship between pi and circumference. The students can measure the circumference of everyday items and explore the ratio of pi between the circumference and diameter

Students will be creating their own arcade games with recycled materials. One idea can change the world! **Notes to admin - I have the hand out documents but they are not yet attached**

Stage 2 of a 4-stage project. Students will continue to research the pros and cons of small farms. Students will revisit their original farm drawing, ensuring they have different key features, and

This lesson takes place in a classroom over two weeks. Students may work in small groups of 2-3. Prior to the robotics challenge, teachers should facilitate student discussion through guided lessons

Students will be creating an obstacle course and utilizing edison robots and edScratch to program robots to go through the course. Materials: Edison Robots and anything needed to create the obstacle

In this lesson, students will calculate the surface area of rectangular prism, first constructed and then deconstructed and make observations about any potential differences. Making these connections

Today, students will calculate the volume of a cube. They will work on measuring and determining how much soil they will need. What is volume? How do we find volume? Volume of gardening cubes

In this lesson, students will identify the significance of the shapes found in and around their home. Making these connections will provide a real-world framework to their understanding of mathematics

Students will focus on the Engineering Design process, which includes researching, as well as making improvements to a design, with appropriate testing. Basic materials, pencil, paper, scissors, tape
