STEM Lesson Plans

In this lesson the students will listen to the book THE WATCHER: Jane Goodall's Life with the Chimps and then engage in building a tool to collect the most ants in a timed setting.

In this lesson students will be exploring the ball drop phenomenon in order to gain an understanding of Newton's second law of motion. Students will observe the phenomenon demonstration and then

In the lesson on upcycling empty water bottles, students will embark on an innovative and eco-friendly exploration of creative reuse, incorporating science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)

In the STEM Pine Cone Decoration lesson, students will embark on a creative and hands-on exploration of nature-inspired crafting, integrating science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) concepts

This lesson is intended to expose students to information about Environmental Changes and how Solar Energy affects living things. Students are challenged to design and build a shelter for a dog to

Part 4! Students take all that they have learned from all the parts along with observations of their rocket launch to create a detailed google slides presentation!

Students will combine science and art by using an alternative photographic process called cyanotypes or sun prints. After a short introduction to the history of cyanotypes and the process of creating

In this engaging lesson, students will delve into the fascinating world of energy transfer and efficiency by designing and building their own solar-powered devices. Through hands-on activities

5E lesson plan for teaching middle school students (grades 6-8) how to use sensors to control motors and interact with objects on a field using block code with a system like LEGO Mindstorms.

This lesson is to help students create geometric shapes by writing codes to allow their robot to create the assigned shape.

This is a lesson geared toward junior high and high school classes to introduce students to the idea of cryptography and encryption. This lesson could be simplified for younger students by removing

What would you do if you were dropped into the wilderness, with nothing but what you could fit into a backpack, and had to survive harsh weather, a hostile location, and possibly aggressive wildlife

In this lesson, students will carry out an investigation to discover how increasing the mass of an object will affect its motion. Then, they will design their own investigation to discover how

This hands-on lesson introduces students to gardening and the sustainability of food. Students will grow small gardens and manage them.

Students will create an engineering notebook that documents their progress through the engineering design process as it applies to their choice of project, either creating a toy from “trash” or a

In this lesson, students will relate The Very Hungry Caterpillar to a butterfly's life cycle. Students will learn the four main parts of a butterfly's life cycle and then use the indi robot to create

In this lesson, students will practice the skill of sequencing the main parts of The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. Students will then use the indi robot and coding tiles to create a model

In this hands-on lesson, students explore engineering and art as they use the same materials as the three little pigs to create a structure that would survive the blowing of a wolf (fan). Students

This lesson plan is designed to give students the opportunity to learn about and implement bar graphs, line graphs, and picture graphs. Students will make physical graphs as well as digital graphs
