Students will investigate the properties of different types of matter and apply the concept of "P1: Matter" to design, model, and 3D print an object using a MakerBot 3D printer. Hands-On STEM Design
In this hands-on engineering and science project, students will become earthquake engineers tasked with designing and constructing earthquake-proof structures using toothpicks and mini marshmallows
This is the part 2 of composting lesson aligned to narrative writing. In this lesson, students embark in the experience of observing the decomposition process of the materials, identifying the factors
This lesson is a follow up of lesson 1 of 2. Students will extend the focus of their cause by creating a logo and swag to be presented at an "EXPO" held at your school.
This lesson can be applied to multiple content areas. Following a discussion about what a cause is and looking at examples, students will work in groups to create a name, mission statement, and vision
Students will apply STEM principles to design and build a working circuit in the shape of a heart, incorporating science concepts, technology tools, engineering skills, and mathematical calculations.
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 introductory lesson to computer science, students will learn about the computing process of input→memory/processing→output.
Students will learn and recall about the different parts and components of an Adafruit Circuit Playground Express. Students will be able to program an Adafruit Circuit Playground Express
Students are tasked with using the Engineering Design Process to create a system of harvesting rainwater to meet the needs of residents in communities that have a scarce water supply (shortage of
Teams are tasked with creating and designing a greener/cleaner city that has a minimum of 20 green/clean sustainable features. Students will be designing a sustainable city in teams. In order to
Students play a game to model and graph the effects an invasive species on a local ecosystem before analyzing a case study and completing a research project.
This STEM lesson takes place in a science classroom after students have explored the differences between substances (in the solid, liquid, and gas states), and energy transfer. It is intended to last
Students will build an ice snowman and a house for him to live in. They will collaborate to design a structure to keep him from melting. This project uses basic materials to study insulation and
In this activity, students read about discovering energy and the impact encountered by ships at sea. Students will have the opportunity to read about how lighthouses can solve those problems and
As an intro to Thermal Energy, students are challenged to create a warmer that will keep my coffee warm. Students project will be tested in class, data will be collected, compared, and graphed.
In this lesson, students use the engineering process to solve a real-world problem along the I-10 in Arizona. Students analyze data about roadkill along a particular stretch on the I-10 just outside
An introduction to Newton's Laws of Motion. Students will utilize two or three options to move a balloon across a tethered line. Students will compare and contrast two different size balloons moving
Students explore different types of bridges and then practice building them with K'Nex sets.
Students will follow the Engineering Design Process to create a hoop glider out of straws and index cards and explore the forces of flight. Students will work on the 4Cs skills as they work together
