STEM Lesson Plans

This is a solar panel investigation lesson using mini solar panels from Agrivoltaics Kits provided from U of A. Students will investigate how the direction and angle impacts voltage output.

This is a four-part lesson that will guide students in groups to create a trackless dark ride. A dark ride is a ride where engineers utilize characters, scenes, and music to tell a story to the rider

Students will construct geometric shapes in an engaging way with their Edison robot, then use their protractors to measure the angles they drew.

In this lesson you will have the opportunity to have students build a domain from the movie/book The One and Only Ivan. Students will have the chance to build and rebuild their domain if needed. As

Students will develop and create a sail option that will propel their lego cars.

This STEM lesson combines Math, Science and a bit of Engineering. Students will walk through the process of raising chicks to hens. Using pretend chicks and research to collect data about how they

What if we could pass along information that can’t be stolen or intercepted? We can do it with a little coding, and some chemistry! Soon we will be writing in code, passing secret information along

This lesson looks at the Fibonacci sequence and the story of Fibonacci. It looks at the numbers, the rectangles and places in nature and art where they can be found.

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 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 learn about weathering and erosion. They will also plant seeds to take home and to also grow at school. The lesson title is Gardening from School to Home Lesson #3.

This lesson is an introduction to CAD, possibly leading up to 3D printing. The idea is to be familiar with CAD and more specifically the TinkerCAD application.

In this lesson, students will understand the impact of oil spills in the ocean. They will work cooperatively to come up with solutions and materials to clean up a simulated oil spill. Students will

A good investigation for the fall when seeds are available. Some seeds will need to be collected in the spring.

This investigation focuses on how the speed of an object affects the amount of energy transfer.

Students explore throwing and/or flipping Ping-Pong balls through the air. Students develop questions to find patterns of how changing the energy put into the ball affects the motion of the ball

The investigation focuses on how a rubber band is used to transfer energy to an object.

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

This STEM activity is designed to explore electrical circuits and engage in a hands-on activity to create, label, and identify the differences between parallel and series circuits. Students will be

Students will make paper from various types of paper from junk mail, old homework, natural papers and add various herbs or dried flowers and fibers such as threads. A second batch of paper will be

This lesson includes literacy, math, and art about snowflakes. Within math, students will dive into an analysis of angles within a common snowflake. Students will listen to an informational text about
