STEM Lesson Plans

In this project students will be creating an agricultural community display. Students will need to create a proposal letter first to secure funding. Then they will create a blueprint that needs to be

This is the culminating lesson in the series of lessons comparing how garden growing techniques determine plant growth/production. In this lesson students will apply the Engineering Design Process as

This lesson teaches how to give and receive constructive feedback by using a group carousel feedback format, and how to create a compelling presentation using Keynote, Google Slides, or PowerPoint.

This lesson teaches 3D design using Tinkercad. It provides tutorials for teachers to use in a hands-on lab to orient students to 3D design so students can begin to draft their own prototypes.

This lesson introduces students to 3D printing. It provides some background videos on real-world 3D printing use, and then uses the Jot Notes technique to generate ideas for their own designs.

This lesson is part of a 4-Day mini-unit developed for 7th and 8th grade about Ethics and Artificial Intelligence. This multi-activity lesson can be used as a stand-alone lesson to help students

This lesson is part of a 4-Day mini-unit developed for 7th and 8th grade about Ethics and Artificial Intelligence. This lesson can be used as a stand-alone lesson to support understanding Artificial

This lesson is part of a 4-Day mini-unit developed for 7th and 8th grade about Ethics and Artificial Intelligence. This introductory lesson can be used as a stand-alone lesson analyzing the meaning of

In this lesson, students will apply the knowledge of calculating volume to determine the amount of soil they need to fill their planters. They will also use their skills to multiply and divide the

This is a series of lessons that discusses the process and factors that may affect and may not affect seed germination. This also builds the background of the students about the needs of the plants

In 5th grade Social Studies we learn about the American Revolution and study evidence of Espionage used by the Patriots to win the Revolution. Prior to the activity students will read a variety of

The lesson is designed for use as part of a unit on energy transfer within a system. Before doing this lesson, students should have a basic understanding of potential and kinetic energy. Students will

Students think about dipping a cube in paint, then count the amount of faces that are painted (either 1, 2, 3, or none) they then make a table with the data and are asked to find any patterns they may

Using Vernier motion sensor technology (not included) students will model their position vs time on Vernier Graphical Analysis.

Students use the engineering design process to create paper rocket protoypes and complete a cost-benefit analysis to help choose the best one.

Context: This lesson takes place in a classroom for two or more class periods Students may work in small groups of 2-4. An emphasis on the experiment of making an indestructible Edison robot Creative

It is a lesson that is based on Mathematical computation and Project based learning. Students have to find the proportional relationship between the surface area of the house and the paint to be used

This lesson is from Arizona Game and Fish Department. The lesson has students look at data on elk-vehicle collisions on State Route 260. The road is being widened to a two-lane divided road with elk

In this lesson students will be able to make their own slime using chemistry and chemical reactions then use their slime as a model for fractions while reading a short story called, "Slimey is Half."

In this lesson, students will observe the geometry of lunar and solar eclipses by creating a physical, proportional model of the Earth and Moon system and observing shadows.

This is the planning and set-up stage for an experiment to see which type of gardening is the most sustainable and produces the best results. You will need to either choose or have students help

In this lesson, s tudents will learn the main characteristics of the 5 classes of vertebrate animals: mammals, fish, birds, amphibians and reptiles. S tudent groups will then collaborate to design an

Students will begin the year working with a hydroponics system to observe plant growth. To start the students will be given a seedling and determine what the plant is as it goes through the life cycle
