In this activity, we will embark on a thrilling journey of exploration and discovery as we design, construct, and launch our very own rockets using pool noodles and rubber bands. But before we dive
From this lesson, students will discover how friction affects how things move. This is an excellent activity that will allow students to be creative and build a marble run to show friction. This
With this introductory lesson on Newton's Laws, student will have the opportunity to understand and explain Newton's 3 laws through a hands-on experience. This is an excellent way to introduce physics
Students learn the history of rocketry, and the science behind rockets, and then design, build, and launch bottle rockets with compressed air and water.
This is lesson 8 of 8 Basic Handling Lessons. This is the culmination Attitude Test in which students apply all of the Handling lessons to an actual flight. This is a 3 minute flight simulator lesson
This is lesson 7 of 8 Basic Handling Lessons. This unit culminates in the Attitude Test in which students apply all of the Handling lessons to an actual flight. This is a 3 minute flight simulator
This lesson has students investigate how forces and motion affect a car fueld by CO2 gas. Students have a design challenge to utilize their science knowledge to create a successful car.
Day 3 of 3 in a skateboard building unit. Student will apply Newton's law skateboarding, deconstruct and construct a basic skateboard, learn basic safety and outdoor riding rules.
This is lesson plan two of three in a skateboard building unit that applies Newtons Laws to skateboarding. Students will learn the parts of a skateboard, construct a simple skateboard, learn safety
This lesson gives a hands-on way of teaching the 2nd law of motion. Students are able to experiment with different objects with different masses to discover how mass affects force and acceleration.
Today students will design a mini golf hole. Their hole theme should be based on the inventor they researched.
A 4-8 grade STEM lesson 4 of 4 skills improvement and evaluation. Career outlook for UAV/Drone Pilots, paths to becoming a commercial drone pilot. A review of flight dynamics, and the steps that had
This lesson is lesson 3 of 4 so it is designed to be used in conjunction with the two previous lessons. The students will continue using their newly acquired drone flying skills with both DroneBlocks
Students will study car barrier engineering in this lesson. They will study how Newton’s Second Law of motion can be applied to determine how to decrease the force of impact during a collision. They
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.
In this lesson, students will learn about projectile motion and the factors that affect it by designing and building a simple catapult. Through hands-on experimentation, students will investigate how
This lesson plan can be adapted to Grades 6-8th (possibly younger as well) Using various Science/Engineering standards and concepts to engage in discussion, creation and testing of designs in an egg
Students explore energy transfer, gravity, and Newton's laws as they engineer a design to reduce the force of impact on an egg dropped from a 6 meter height.
Aerospace to Sports explores the concept of how aerospace engineering has impacted sports, specifically exploring the design of golf balls. Students learn about how the industry employs engineering
Students will test the relationships between mass, speed, and kinetic energy using a toy skateboard.
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**
This lesson plan is designed to teach students about Newton's 3rd Law of Motion through hands-on experimentation. Students will build cars and test the effects of collisions to gain a deeper
1. Present the project and explain the basic steps that the students will be completing over the next 2 to 3 class periods. • The students will be working and pretending that they work for an
