STEM Lesson Plans

After learning about emission spectra, electron energy levels, orbitals and configurations, and periodic trends for atomic radius and ionization energy; this is concluding activity that require

This lesson is an activity to show how projectile motion and many other motions in nature fallow a parabolic curve. Students will manipulate that knowledge and analyze data using small play tanks to

I use this lesson as a fun activity to visualize unit conversions and the immense scale of the universe. I love this lesson because I find it challenging to teach unit conversions with hands-on

This lesson aims to introduce the concept of equilibrium point by creating and revising a model. This hands-on lesson encourages students to explore the concepts of equilibrium and balance while

Students use GIS and analyze another digital map before constructing a model to explain human impacts on different biomes across the globe.

This lesson will introduce students to the phases of the moon and how they are created by the position of the Earth, moon, & sun during the month. There is an embedded hands on activity that is

An introduction to Kepler's 1st Law and ellipses. The lesson includes some guided notes for students as well as a hands on activity where students will draw, measure, explore, and conduct calculations

An introductory lesson regarding the size and scale of the Universe and objects within. Designed for high school Astronomy but easily useable with ages down through 7th grade.

Students will discover the relationship between mass and volume in relation to density through an inquiry lab. Students will take mass and volume data of several different solid substances and compare

Students are presented with a real-world problem, the newly poured delivery ramp for the cafeteria is too slick, students are tasked with suggesting a surfacing that will increase the ramp's safety

In this lesson, students are introduced to a crime scene where they must work in groups and rotate through four stations to solve the murder of Geoffry Dormer. The stations include fingerprint

Students are introduced to a project that asks them to use classroom materials to create a new form of vision technology. Students review how the eye works, create a plan, and share that plan with

In this lesson, students will discuss where invasive species come from and their impacts on the ecosystems in which they are found. In groups, students will research invasive species common in the

This lesson discusses and gives you a more in-depth understanding of the relationship of particles that are held together by a certain amount of energy. The energy is required to break bonds and the

This lesson give emphasis on the systems A and B of the chemical reaction that represent the reactants and products. This also focuses on investigating not just the system involved in the chemical

Students will engage in a phenomena based lab in which they simulate relative dating of sedimentary rocks, an earthquake and volcanic eruption. In the lab, students will see how the layers at the

This lesson falls within our unit learning about the elements of the periodic table, how it is arranged and what trends exist within it. This lesson asks students to apply their knowledge of chemical

Students use Google Earth Timelapse to observe changes to glaciers over time before completing an investigation on the effects of melting sea ice and land ice on global sea level rise.

This lesson uses a Modeling Instruction approach to experimental design and analysis leading students to develop the graphical and mathematical relationships for accelerated motion, or kinematics.

This is a two-day introductory lab exercise using video analysis to derive the equations that govern projectile motion. It employs elements of Modeling Instruction to engage students in doing science.

Growing Crystals Part 2 is a unique lesson that has an emphasis on the synthetic growing of crystals in the laboratory. This activity also focuses on investigating the process of how synthetic

GROWING CRYSTALS PART 1, A lesson that focuses on the different types of formation of crystalline solid, its properties and the attractive forces responsible to it during chemical bonding. It is

In this lesson plan the students learn to design, construct and determine weight loads capabilities for their project.

Students will discover: I put rotted food into a container with earthworms, where did the food go?
