STEM Lesson Plans

Students will apply their knowledge of food chains within ecosystems to the design of a mandala. This lesson will combine science, visual art and geometry. First, students will get a review of food

Students get hands-on learning about 2D cross sections of 3D objects with this creative food lesson! From brownies to pickles, students will use food to describe what a cross section is of a 3D shape

Students will build the distance formula in a spreadsheet to create a sort of "calculator." Students begin by comparing standard math notation with spreadsheets, then practice programming simple math

In this engaging lesson, students use their knowledge from the 2 previous lessons to design, draw blueprints, and build a load bearing bridge. Link to view all lessons is included!

This hands-on lesson engages students by having them give each other instructions to complete a task. They read about coding and code for a Sphero bot to navigate a course using math to calculate

In this lesson, students will build irregular figures using Magna-Tiles. Students will collaborate, discuss, and debate with peers to find multiple ways to calculate the volume and surface areas of

In this lesson, teams of 3-4 students will design and create scale models of four landforms that they chose. This lesson takes place in a classroom for 60 minutes, with an emphasis on the target

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

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 is a lesson involving math, science, and engineering. Students are also required to write a reflection paragraph. Students will use a scale to create a scale drawing of a sustainable house that

This lesson is part 2 of 2. In lesson one, students create a scale drawing (blueprint) of a sustainable house. In this lesson, students use their scale drawing to create a scale model of a sustainable

In this lesson students will demonstrate their deeper understanding of how the concept of slope is applied to the real-world construction of the wheelchair access ramp. Students will use the knowledge

Lesson 2 of 4 Students will investigate and research key factors that impact urban heat islands. Equipped with evidence, students will draft a scaled drawing of a master-planned community applying

In this lesson, students will learn about the history of flight and the technological advancements that led to modern aviation. Students will learn about how the study of birds and other flying

This is the 3rd lesson in the series. In this lesson, students will select one building from their master-planned community to construct a 3D model that absorbs/releases 8% less than the surrounding

How can we design and engineer sports venues of the future that practice sustainability? According to the Green Sports Alliance, 17% of the world's population follows science but about 80% follow

This lesson provides opportunity to our students to apply their knowledge in solving real world problems. The students will create a new design for a cereal box using math, art and design. They also

In this hands-on lesson, students will be challenged to complete an obstacle course with a Sphero/RVR/Edison through coding. Students will be given a task list to complete and will be timed. Math

Empower with solar, motors & wireless! Unravel renewable energy, motor tech & wireless applications in an engaging STEM journey.

In this hands-on lesson, students will explore a solar panel kit. They will measure all aspects of the kit and create a scale drawing, using proportions.

This lesson is modeled after STEMAzing's lesson, "Picture Perfect Rover Cell Phone Holder”. Students will build a cell phone holder for their Edison Bot, plan a drive for the Bot to collect photos or
