STEM Lesson Plans

This is an Agricultural STEM lesson designed for primary grades. It shows how worms break down organic matter (a banana peel). The students will measure and observe the decomposition overtime. They

Students will participate in a hands-on scientific experiment that addresses the question: "Can you grow plants without seeds?" To further explore this concept, students will actively listen to a read

Students use large building bricks to practice computational thinking, direction giving and being specific in those directions. This lesson can be completed in one 30-45 minute class session. This is

In this lesson students will identify the four seasons. They will then explore how trees change with the seasons and how that impacts what humans wear and act.

In this lesson kindergarten will explore their 5 senses and how they can be used in the garden.

Designed for three hour-long before-school STEAM Club for scholars from Kindergarten to Fourth Grades. This lesson plan can also be used for fifth-seventh grade scholars. Scholars will learn about

Students will ask questions to obtain information about the purpose of weather forecasting to prepare for, and respond to, severe weather.

Today we will learn and explain about pollination and how it helps plants to grow and reproduce. Today we will describe the scientific steps of pollination using details from a story. Today we will

The students will create a Three Sisters Garden by participating in a teamwork activity, listening to a read aloud, watching a video, creating a diagram, planting the garden, and creating a video

If you have different types of soil and add water, what happens?

Students will learn about stars and constellations, then design their own constellation and create a model.

Create a Bee-Bot board game, and program the Bee-Bot to move through the game board. Students will use the steps of the engineering design process as they work as a team to create and play their game

Students will be go on a nature walk, notice nature, and increase their observation skills. Students will be able to identify different plant types and make connections to the plant’s needs: sunlight

Students collaborate to create mazes for the Bee-Bot robot. Students also work in teams to plan and create programs to move Bee-Bots through the maze. For this lesson, students work in groups of 2-3

Students will be learning about the life cycle of a potato, how to grow potatoes, and measuring the growth of the stems. You'll need potatoes that are ready to plant, garden space, or tubs to put the

Students will analyze shadows to determine how light moves and changes throughout the day.

Summary Today we will understand the stages of the bean cycle from seed to plant. Today we will learn the importance of each stage in the growth of a bean plant. Today we will predict the life cycles

Students will be able to observe and recognize that a thermometer is a device that is used to measure a change in temperature.

In this kindergarten lesson we'll be learning all about Bats and why they're important to our environment. Students will create a bat out of ripped up pieces of paper and will fill in a bat template

Sound: Fill glasses with water and other liquids at different heights to produce sound.

A lower elementary (Kindergarten through 4th grade) lesson plan to explore what the robot can and can not do, to program the robot to complete a task, and to collaboratively work as a team to complete

Students will participate in an engineering challenge or STEM activity that connects to a read aloud. Students will communicate solutions that will reduce the impact of humans on the land, water, air

Students will be solving addition or subtraction equations. They will show their answers on a math paper or grid by coding a Bee-Bot to show their answer. Materials: Index cards with written numbers 1

Students will develop a simple sketch, write and a physical model to illustrate how the shape of an object helps it function as needed to solve a given problem. Students will interpret data to state
